Shopping for the rocker that has everything?

Thursday, June 26th, 2008

(New York, NY) — What do you get the rocker that has everything?  Allow New York City’s latest alternative tradeshow to answer that question as designers from all over the world gather this summer. On display again this July will be the coolest emerging trends in streetwear gear. Londonedge New York (LENY) returns to Manhattan this July 21st and 22nd, 2008 where cult brands from the UK, Europe and the US will come together under one roof and transform the River Pavillion (Javits Center). Expect the hottest, alternative fashion trends in clothing, footwear, accessories and giftware for the stylist looking for something fresh and new.

 

The search for the ultimate t-shirt is constant and unrelenting but exhibitors such as Dead Cities (www.DeadCitiesClothing.com), Impact Merchandising (www.ImpactMerch.com) and Steady Clothing (www.SteadyClothing.com) have just what you’re looking for. Is it time for a new belt and buckle? Inochi has a new line that is all hand carved (www.InochiJewelry.com).  A killer watch is the crown jewel in any attire. Look to Nemesis Watch/ Exact Time Corp. (www.NemesisWatch.com) for style matched with rugged endurance. This tradeshow offers head to toe inspiration and there will be no shortage of jewelry and accessories either such as the whimsical options offered up from Alter Ego Jewelry (www.AlterEgoJewelry.net). Bring on the boots too; trend-setting footwear that will kick in any doors will be on display such as new lines from New Rock Shoes (www.newrock.es).  

Influential fashion stylists / cutting edge photographers / make-up artists should not miss out on this opportunity of a lifetime.  This is a trade show like no other! Be a part of the LENY’s triumphant return to New York City and experience rock and cult fashion first hand. Our host, LENY, promises a relaxed, fun and chill tradeshow for the fashion industry full of charming punk-induced Brit hospitality.

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).

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.
