LONDON SHOWS USHER IN S/S 2008 TRENDS
London, England, 10 Aug. 2007
At Margin (margin.tv), which ran August 5 to 7, a new initiative, Accessories Gild, presented a consistent slew of labels encompassing handbags, jewelry, socks, scarves and even the odd tie. A collection of abstractly printed clutches and scarves by Stateek (stateek.com), was one highlight and Punky Pins (punkypins.co.uk) charmed visitors with its clubby, quirky jewelry range.
On the apparel side, Oak Jeans (oakjeans.com) showcased its collection in the section dedicated to new names, 101. Although the label is still in its infancy and offers a limited number of styles, it is reaping the awards after being featured to great acclaim on the prime time TV UK reality show, WAGs Boutique.
The fluoro color fad, which was absent elsewhere, made an appearance at Margin where it manifested itself in the collections of White Trash for Cash and Chateau Roux, among others. (Evidently, the New Rave trend is not yet ready to put its dancing shoes on the shelf, at least in London, the club mecca of the world.)
Margin’s producers reported that attendance at the latest edition matched that of the February 2007 show, which saw a 40% increase from the prior one.
Oak Jeans With a myspace friendlist approaching six thousand following their appearance on Wags Boutique, Oak Jeans have developed a loyal fan base of consumers from being stocked in the Better Half Boutique on the popular ITV show. With a mission to provide women with the most perfect fitting denim, Oak Jeans are hand-crafted from high quality materials.

Oak Jeans will be making their international debut exclusively at Margin in August looking to meet with stockists who aren’t necessarily owned by the wives and girlfriends of celebrity footballers!

MENS & WOMENS CLOTHING & ACCESSORIES � UPSCALE STREETWEAR & DIRECTIONAL TAILORING +++ Margin is a curated event where buyers know they can find great new labels season after season and don’t have to wade through hall after hall of established brands to find directional new products to offer their shoppers.
+++ Spaces are limited to appropriate brands only that have a directional edge and something new to offer.
+++ Margin consistently welcomes key buyers from directional stores and editors from cutting-edge titles keen to keep a step ahead of the competition and who know Margin is the prime location to discover new brands + at larger events where mainstream brands take centre-stage and priority, new labels can often be an opportunity missed.+++ The Original and the best platform for new talent for over 5 years, Margin was established to help new labels reach a wider buying and press audience. Margin was created out of necessity. Retailers and Editors travel the world looking for the next big thing but are never going to find it at a show whose costs prohibit fresh talent. The main drive of Margin was to establish a show where new young labels could find an affordable and successful platform.
