Betsey Johnson won't be bringing her signature flashy style to the catwalk during Fashion Week in New York next month.

"Betsey will be taking the [fall/winter 2013] season off to focus on her brand expansion," the company announced Monday.

That includes a dress launch, a new fragrance and work on her upcoming Style Network reality show, "The Betsey and Lulu Show," with daughter Lulu Johnson.

Johnson filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in May, but threw a 70th birthday party-runway show during September's Fashion Week.

Though she won't have a runway show this time around, Johnson is slated to host a FW event to be taped for her reality show.
