Following the success of the February 2005 Pure London show, GLEÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s oneLondon and Global Gateway2Trade (GG2T) are offering a further 15 womenswear fashion designers the unique opportunity to showcase their designs at this event.
PURE takes place on the 12th, 13th and 14th February 2006 at London Olympia offering retailers a total one-stop show buying experience and designers unique exposure. PureÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s eye-catching catwalk shows will take on a new set for Autumn/Winter 2007. The catwalk runs three times a day, bringing a diverse range of contemporary, casual and designer brands to life. These will be complimented by the essential DrapersÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ fashion forecasts and live industry interviews. Pure is a renowned hunting ground for progressive womenswear and testimonies from retailers confirm that Pure is a key reference point when buying fashion in the UK.
