Taking on the Trades

Earlier this week every fashion forward buyer was at the Javits Center attending the junior and young contemporary trade shows. I had the chance to work alongside a multi-line showroom providing the latest fall fashions to buyers from all across the country. Many of the buyers were boutique owners and others were on the e-commerce side. 

I entered the show bright and early with my kale smoothie in my left hand and a show badge in the right. There were tons of people hustling and bustling around and everyone was dressed to kill. Getting to see what the wholesale world was like was a great learning experience and obviously being in a huge room filled with fab clothing was heavenly!
