Presenting
the biggest exhibition of alternative merchandise anywhere on the planet,
LondonEdge celebrates the world’s most creative and exciting ‘niches’ in
fashion, footwear and accessories.
With
a reputation for attracting a high percentage of overseas buyers, this unique
global show is dedicated to short order merchandise and is one of the most
successful and enduring trade shows on the circuit.
Split
into two notional areas, Original and Fashion, LondonEdge Original represents
over 200 hard-edged, punk, rock, goth and tattoo inspired brands where as
LondonEdge Fashion houses over 150 rock n roll, vintage, retro, pin up,
burlesque and rockabilly collections. With both areas heaving with clothing,
accessories and beauty brands, there truly is something for everyone.
Although
in its 14th year, Londonedge is still breaking barriers & this
September 2013 show welcomes the highest number of new, first time exhibitors
for years.
Along
with the usual array of brands available, visitors can expect to see over 30
new, never seen before companies showing as many as 50 collections from all
corners of the planet. New exhibitors to keep an eye out for include Betties
Page, Faux Real, Hello Margo, Isabelle Batz, Jubly Umph, Music Legs, Time City
and Dark Candles to name a few.
Elsewhere
on the bustling trade show floor, Hell Bunny, Sourpuss, Iron Fist, Loungefly,
Alchemy, Too Fast, One Direction, Banned, Collectif, Dead Threads, New Rock and
TUK return once again to wow buyers and attendees with their one-of-a-kind and
eye catching collections.
Once
again the plethora of entertainment on offer will not disappoint, with a unique
blend of specialist acts and fashion shows taking to the main stage and
fantastic Feature lounges feature in place.
Themed
areas include VintEdge (for vintage, vintage inspired and crafty brands),
complimentary hairstyling, free liquor shots, energising music and a great
atmosphere, all proof of a show that can’t be missed.
When
it comes to the business side of things, business is conducted onsite which
eliminates the pressure to chase orders at a later date.
Always
with the exhibitors needs at the forefront, this September, LondonEdge have a
dedicated Buyer Liaison Manager on board inviting attendees from far and wide. A
particular focus this season is on exhibitor nominated, VIP buyers from
countries with a strong or growing economies including Australia, Scandinavia,
Lithuania, USA and Germany.
Last
season saw an overall increase of 14% against September 2012 with 14% increase
in the UK attendance & 13% increase in overseas attendees. With these new
additions, this September 2013 will no doubt see a further increase.
Continually
developing and improving, after a trial date change for the January 2013 show,
this September LondonEdge has returned to its usual format kicking things off on
Sunday and finishing end of Tuesday.
