In the US, female fashion shows seen here (8)

I believe the answer is:

broadway

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'seen here' is the definition.
The answer is a location as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.

'in the us female fashion' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'female' could be 'broad' (broad is a kind of female) and 'broad' is found in the answer.
'fashion' could be 'way' (synonyms) and 'way' is located in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'shows' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
