Boasting two whole decades of business transactions, catwalks and creative fashion and general anarchy, LondonEdge is now one of the longest running British tradeshows… and you can see why.

Attracting thousands of people from all over the globe, the 40th London edition of the planet’s biggest live alternative fashion forum will follow hot on the heels of the 3rd Vegas Edge at Alexis Park All-Suite Resort & Convention Centre between the 13th and 14th August 2019. Hitting the Business Design Centre, Islington, N1 on the 1st and 2nd September 2019, the show will be delivering some of the best lifestyle & youth-culture brands on the face of the planet to help celebrate this huge landmark show. For #40, impact is king! As the ultimate alternative fashion trade festival in the world, LondonEdge is celebrating all areas of fashion.

Managing Director of the LondonEdge series, Carole Hunter said the following:

“Show #40?! What an unbelievable journey! 20 years in this business has taught me so much. Since the conception of LondonEdge in 2000, we’ve witnessed four UK Prime Ministers, three Popes, (at least) two worldwide recessions, four US Presidents, five Olympic Games, the global digital revolution, internet dating, the world dominance of the smartphone & countless other amazing/devastating events in equal measure. We’ve also welcomed many, many thousands of buyers, 2000 exhibitors & supported 10’s of thousands of lifestyle & alternative fashion businesses to fly high! These shows bring a band of amazing exhibitors including the likes of KOI Footwear, Daisy Street and Joe Brown while year 21 will deliver more exciting plans, expansion and more!”
