ALTERNATIVE TRADESHOW RETURNS TO NYC
LENY (LONDONEDGE NEW YORK) COMMITS TO SECOND ANNUAL SHOW AND REVEALS THE FIRST GROUP OF EXHIBITORS
2007’s LENY took New York City by storm last year. Literally!
The first of its kind alternative fashion tradeshow came in with a BANG (and thunder). Lighting and dark clouds filled the sky as the booths inside were filled with what proved to be the hottest streetwear trends of 2008. Streets were flooded that opening day at Pier 92 but in the end thanks to the flow of groundbreaking product lines promises of punk, piercings and platforms were made good that summer.
This year will be no different but the fireworks and excitement will be inside at LENY’s new location, the River Pavillion (Javits Center), July 21st and 22nd, 2008. Londonedge welcomes back many of the exhibitors from last year along with new ones. These exhibitors are really the stars and main attraction of the show as they travel from all over the world to display their current lines.
We are talking about the whole package here! Head to steel-toe gear for guys and girls; style accents for the home or Harley; chains to hang from the neck or from wherever, what the heck!
The fashion future of the underground movement under one roof is a concept that only LENY can pull off.
LENY has revealed the first group of exhibitors for July 2008 and we are off and running! This is an opportunity for stylists, journalists and trend spotting bloggers to see what’s fresh for 2009/2010.
