While I absolutely love living in New York it's sometimes quite a bummer to know that it's not always possible to just pick up and go to the various exciting, inspiring, and resourceful textile and fashion related shows that happen in other parts of the country.

TexWorld; Inspiration or a Necessity?

And while I found this show to be abundant with useful and widely used fabrics, I can't help but feel a little disappointed in terms of innovation and inspiration.

A Little Peak @ TexWorld USA

July 14, 2010 in Apparel Textiles, Eco and Sustainable Fabrics, Home Textiles, Industry Events, Trade Shows by Nicole

Ignoring the dreary, sticky, humid weather today I headed, on foot, to the Javitz Center to check out TexWorld, that much anticipated textile show in New York. I spent a few hours wandering around, frantically taking notes, and soaking up all the show had to offer. I have quite a few opinions to ...Read More >>
