From the Desk of the Publisher
We always give the six-month exhibition calendar in order that our readers can plan their visits that can coincide with your business trips when you happen to be in the same city. Actually fashion shows and exhibitions can bring the business together especially if you are also going to show the collections to your customers.
You can use what you have observed at the shows to reconfirm your designs and creations. What you have seen can always be used as a reference afterwards. After all to show the right trend is very important in our business.
It is also the time to catch up with friends from the industry. There are people that you can see only at the shows. There are also some old acquaintances that you may catch up unexpectedly.
Sometimes I feel that we are living in the same village although we can be separated by continents.
