Showroom New York Holding Showroom Designer Jury



Showroom New York, a showroom funded by the state of New York whose aim is to nurture and incubate young designers who manufacture in New York , is holding their Showroom Designer Jury today, January 14th at Stoll Fashion & Technology Center. The Showroom is seeking contemporary ready-to-wear and accessory designers to join the showroom for the fall/winter 2010 season.



The designers will be judged based on quality, innovation and marketability. Collections of a selection of pre-screened New York City designers, both designers currently housed at the showroom and new designers hoping to join, will be reviewed by a panel of industry professional including Tanama Besosa Castillo Market Editor of Allure Magazine and Joseph Ferrara of Garment Center Supplier Association of New York.



Acceptance into the showroom includes sales representation through the fall/winter 2010 season amongst other networking opportunities. In addition to representation, Showroom New York offers business and marketing support as well as sourcing referrals for local production.



Last September, several designers at Showroom New York (Mothe, Shauntele, Manisse, Francoise Olivas, and Keruvim) were invited to showcase their spring/summer 2010 collection at the Showroom New York booth at Coterie trade show in New York City.
