Visitors from 29 countries attended LondonEdge’s last edition in February this year, driving the visitor numbers up by 9%. Next season the trade show dedicated to alternative fashion plans to attract an even higher number of buyers and visitors with a fully loaded show running from 4 to 6 September.

The forthcoming edition will be held at the Business Design Centre in London’s Islington, a venue located a stone’s throw from the subculture scene of Camden Market.

"It is an absolute pleasure to be returning to the Business Design Centre and to North London. The location could not be better; there are plenty of underground and mainline stations around, it’s so easy to find. Just walk 5 minutes and you’ll find an array of cafes and restaurants offering cuisine to satisfy all tastes. The BDC offers LondonEdge, our buyers and exhibitors a beautiful, sociable environment in which to do business. Islington definitely feels like home for us,” says Managing Director of LondonEdge, Carole Hunter.

One of the longest running fashion trade shows in London, LondonEdge brings together both UK and international independent brands under one roof, representing a wide selection of punk, rock, goth and tattoo inspired fashion styles. It is known for pushing the boundaries for established sub-culture fashion and attracts buyers from all corners of the globe.

Over the years the fair has taken residency at the Olympia Exhibition Centre in London, at the Business Design Centre in London and even at a nightclub in Berlin.
