Moda, the UK’s largest tradeshow, is set to offer retailers an unparalleled buying opportunity this season. Over 80 exciting new exhibitors, well-respected industry favourites and a host of expert speakers will come together at the A/W 14 event, which takes place between the 16th and 18th February at the NEC Birmingham.
This February, buyers can expect even more great brands all courtesy of an international gathering of contemporary, directional and mainstream labels with new signings in the Moda Woman, Gent, Accessories and Lingerie & Swimwear which will be joined by Violetzone. The catwalk shows themselves will bring buyers closer to the action than ever before. This season, Moda’s runways have come down to ground level, making for a new, more immersive catwalk experience. Providing an essential overview of A/W14, they are a must-see for anyone keen to source new brands, products and ideas.
Moda’s comprehensive, free-to-all-visitors seminar programme promises to be unmissable. Covering everything from visual merchandising to social media, it features the show’s largest line-up of speakers to date. Amongst them is Gloople CEO Warren Knight, who will be discussing funding, investment and the key to online success. Following its launch last year, Moda’s acclaimed Big Live Debate series is set to return with an expanded programme.
