If there appears to be one niche inside the fashion industry that has managed to stay afloat, it would be the streetwear and urban lifestyle oriented labels and movements.
Cool, consdering the aformentioned brands will be showing off their new designs at the Cargo Tradeshow in New York from January 19th to 20th.
Even better, Cargo will be setting up a pop-up store and is wanting people to swing by so they can be interviewed, discussing what they loved or hated about the event. Karmallop TV will also be there and wants just as many people to stop by their booth as well.
And yes, there will be lots of food, complimentary beverages, amazing sales on emerging streetwear, surf, and skateboard labels, as well as music for from a slew of hot NY DJs. Clearly, that last bit of info is relative but if you have the chance to make it out to the event you should go. If only because you'll finally be able to meet the people behind all of those graphic tees you purchase each season.
Here are the event details:
Date: Mon & Tues, January 19th & 20th, 11am to 8pm
Where: St. Patrick's Center, 268 Mulberry Street NYC
