    So is the clothes show basically only remotely close to anything worth going to?

    London Edge is the one to go to. They have a website and all info can be found through that. Bread and Butter is huge!

    those two are the most important for the EU.

    I think there is one in birmingham too.

    Yanks: London Edge is now in New York- they would be good to get in with if you wanted to trade overseas.

    Drop me a line if you want to know more.

    famous and silver star have stands there- check the website- they have a massive street wear market. Sometimes a good stratergy is to sell outside of your normal market.

    my research led me to an interesting story of a company who sold excersise bike- who sold the most at dentists conventions.

    Todays streetweat/metal/pop/inie markets lines are so blurred I doubt its a good idea to make sweeping assumptions like that.

    check it out bro- yuo’d be surprised.

    For the margin show, Its trade only, so does this mean i cannot get in just for a look around and a chat with everyone that is there???

    Is there anyway i can get in if i dont have a stall there???

    Cheers
