Fashion Industry Trade Show Event Guide

A trade show (also referenced as a trade fair or expo) is an exhibition organized so that companies in the clothing industry or textile industry can showcase and demonstrate their latest products or services.  Visitors to such events can also utilize the opportunity to examine recent market trends and opportunities as well as evaluate products on display by their competition.  It is important to members of the fashion industry to stay in tune with what is happening in the market.  One way to view or sell next seasons clothing would be to attend a fashion trade show event.

The Apparel Search directory provides assistance to members of the industry that wish to learn about or locate a particular event.  Below you will find access to a few of the company’s resources.

The Fashion Trade Show by Category section of the directory is for browsing available events by the fashion trade shows category description For example, you will find sections for Men's Clothing Trade Shows, Women's Clothing Trade Shows, Children's Apparel Trade Shows, Textiles & Fabric Exhibitions, Textile Machinery Shows, etc.  After you go to the proper category, you can easily find the company listings alphabetically.  If you do not remember the exhibitions exact title, you can still search the directory and visit the web site for the various trade show events.

In addition to a directory by event name, the site also provides a Fashion Trade Show by Name section for browsing available events by the trade shows name.  If you already know the clothing trade shows name, you can easily find the listing alphabetically.  If you do not remember the exhibitions exact title, you can still search the directory and visit the web site for the various trade show events.

Fashion trade shows are an integral part of the Apparel, Fashion & Textile industries.  The clothing industry has many international fashion runway shows and apparel industry trade shows each year.  The Apparel Search Trade Show Directory will assist you with learning about the available trade events and trade show organizers that specialize in clothing, textiles and fashion exhibitions.

Austin Scarlett Catwalk in Bed

Renowned American fashion designer and “Project Runway” superstar Austin Scarlett turns his bed into a catwalk in this week’s installment of the new video series #ShareTheMattress.  Directed by acclaimed choreographer Larry Keigwin, #ShareTheMattress features well-known creative artists dancing and playing on their beds in tribute to the 10^th anniversary of KEIGWIN + COMPANY dance troupe and its first smash hit, 2003’s “Mattress Suite.”

In the video, Scarlett wears black and white polka-dot pajamas, and “makes it work” with his blanket and sheets as a canvas on which he slides, slinks, twirls and poses like a supermodel.  He even wields a robe like a toreador.  Scarlett’s is the second of 10 #ShareTheMattress videos that will roll out through October.  Viewers are encouraged to make and share their own videos on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or YouTube with the hashtag #ShareTheMattress.  All the videos are available on KEIGWIN + COMPANY’s website.

Keigwin created “Mattress Suite” after watching dancer Nicole Wolcott jump around playfully on her bed.  The pair dragged the mattress onto the floor, developed choreography inspired by Wolcott’s moves and created a narrative that became a full-fledged work set to popular songs and classical music.  The piece was a hit with critics and audiences. KEIGWIN + COMPANY’s 10^th Anniversary season runs October 29-November 3, 2013 at New York City’s Joyce Theater.  “Mattress Suite” will be featured during the run.  Tickets are available now. 

The next video premieres September 24 with rising indie music star Tobey Lightman.
