One of the largest shows for sourcing just ended, Magic, www.magiconline.com. It features many top brands, as well as new independent designers in categories of women, men, and children as well as sub-categories like juniors, shoes, and accessories, and it`s sister-shows, Project and Pool. I don`t know what your niche is, but traveling to the shows is a good way to define what your store will carry...and they are mostly seasonal (meaning accessories is more of broad range of shopping during the whole year, women`s, men`s and childrens go by the season). So you shop in advance of the seasons. The season I just shopped for was the fall, although the show was took place over the dates of Feb. 11-16.

A good way to find the shows, and the subequent lines that are featured during the shows is on www.infomat.com. This website lists most of the bigger shows, from all over the world, including the United States.

Thank you very much for the info, Styleosophy. So, is this where the name brand companies `show their stuff`? Is this where store owners can buy and network with the `big boys`? I`m new to all this so I just wanted some direction. Thanks again for the help.

Hey saved,

Try to contact the business owners of the brand that you are planning to sell through an email. Then if you want to custom made clothes then try to have an inventory and research of what people like and do not like. Clothes with embroidery design are also very trendy nowadays especially on people with white collar jobs.

Hoping for the success of your business.
