Fashion and Accessories communities come out to support joint showcase
For a one time only edition, and in direct response to community feedback, July saw INDX Womenswear & Footwear combine with INDX Accessories, to offer indie retailers a one stop buying shop.
The teams responsible for planning the show worked hard to ensure the well-being of all its visitors and exhibitors and despite the challenges of holding a live event during Covid restricted times, the show successfully delivered an exciting showcase of market leading brands and a friendly, professional environment conducive to placing orders.
The three-day event was backed by market leading fashion brands including Sahara, B-Young, Fransa, Mistral, Pomodoro, Nomads, Beaumont Organic, Darling, LV Clothing, Lily & Me and Weird Fish and these were complemented by an exciting accessory edit which featured the latest collections from names such a Kipling, Fraas, Luella Grey, Gianni Conti, Pampeano, Envy Bags, Jewn and David Jones.
Well attended by clothing and accessories retailers from across the UK, Janice Grant from Lime Blue was among the first of the visiting buyers to herald this season’s show a success:
“I enjoyed my visit to INDX, my first trade fair after lockdowns. It was so good to meet up with suppliers and see and feel product again. From start to finish the show was managed with such ease and felt very safe”.
