Pure 33 London Trade Show.

So I travelled up to London again recently, hoping to get inspired!

I went to the London trade fair of Pure London 33. It is usually a business trade event only but one day (which was Tuesday) is a student day so commoners like me can go and take an oogle!            And I have to say I really enjoyed it, I didn’t expect it to be as big as it was; on two levels including Footwear and Accessories. I walked around trying to take everything in; the floor was filled with all different types of fashion stands, whether it is knitwear, evening wear, young adult…etc. I enjoyed just walking around taking a look, picking up some brochers and cards.

Walking around I came across an Iron Fist stand in the middle of the floor. I must have looked totally dazed as one of the workers came up to me and asked if I liked the stand. I certainly did and with this started up a conversation with him. It was really nice not to be shunned by stand workers because of my position as a student and the man I spoke to was really friendly and talkative. I ended the conversation with saying that “when I graduate I would like to work in a place like this”-well you have to be up front don’t you?! And on that, he gave me a card to contact when I do! Result!

I liked this one-a knicker stand!

 

 

I am now re-thinking where I want to be in the market and what kind of job I really want to do. I’ve always thought couture high end but I feel I might have a flare for a more high street quirky style such as Iron fist or Red or Dead. If so then I have to sort it out now before I do my final project.
