Children’s Club Event Showcased Spring Fashions

ENK reported an upbeat mood at the October Children’s Club show, held in New York Oct. 4-6. “The October show clearly created a strong summer statement for the children’s market following on the huge success of the August Holiday/Resort market held last August,” show coordinator Stanley Kaye stated.

New brands exhibiting at the show included Chicanella Bella, Bisquit and Poppet, Mustard Pie, Mogo, Tie Ups, T-bags, So Nikki inc. and Red Jacket. The exhibit also boasted more than 50 environmentally conscious brands, which feature organic dyes, environmentally conscious textiles such as bamboo and other organic fabrics. Increased consumer acceptance and demand has fueled this trend and many brands have lead the charge

The next Children’s Club show will be held Jan. 10-12 at the Javits Center in New York. To exhibit, call (212) 759-8055 or visit www.enkshows.com.
