Hello Andy,
I am a small clothing design company just getting into this business. I want to attend some fabric trade shows, but don’t know the best ones to attend. Could you give me any suggestions? We design for contemporary women’s clothing (trendy/unique) ages 21-35.

Dear Erin: You can make the trip to Las Vegas from Houston this summer. Visit www.fabricshow.com for the upcoming Magic show. They have a nice area for fabrics, although it is not a “fabric show”. The main fabric shows are the New York Fabric Show in October, and a smaller one in Los Angeles. The New York Show is put on by the same folks as previously mentioned. Good Luck. Andy
