expo – recapitulation

A great début culminates in success!
The beginning of the summer in Kielce was marked with
fashion presentations. Exhibitors and visitors from and
abroad, new merchandise galore presented by producers,
top brands for children which proudly showcased
their collection, interesting meetings and compelling
workshops - this is a nutshell description of the première
edition of the B2B Clothes and Textiles Expo Fashion
For Kids.
This exhibition was held on 28 and 29 June in Targi Kielce
and brought together companies from 7 countries,
inducing: Belgium, Denmark, Italy, Spain, Great Britain,
France and Turkey. The two-day event crafted around
children’s fashion was held in the largest Targi Kielce’s
Expo Hall - the E Expo Pavilion.
A professional catwalk was made especially for the new
event. The catwalk was the stage for the little models
to presented collections for upcoming seasons. Nearly
half a thousand industry visitors and business-insiders
from, inter alia Germany, Ukraine, Russia, Slovakia, Romania,
the Czech Republic, Bulgaria, the Democratic Republic
of the Congo and Canada became familiar with
producers’ and distributors’ offer.
A global-scale fashion event
The creators and organisers of the well-known Kids’
Time expo enjoy a vast experience; therefore the new
event on the Europe’s map of child products and services
business sector’s meetings was bound for success.
- We are satisfied with the fact that we have participated
in the B2B Clothes and Textiles Expo Fashion For
Kids - says Ismail Hakki Kiraz from the Turkish Kimpeks
Tekstil company. - We came to the Kielce for the first
time this year and participated in another event which
focused on toys and products for children. We have
been very contented with our presence at both Fashion
for Kids and Kids’ Time.
- Companies from all over Europe were represent at the
exhibition. There were stands from Denmark next to
ours. I also saw stands from Spain and Italy - comments
Danijela Pantic, a representative of France’s MiniMignon.
Little fashion models on the catwalk
The Fashion for Kids featured fashion shows as its main
attraction. Over sixty children age 3 to 10 years walked
down the catwalk and professionally presented the latest
trends. The fashion show was staged on both expo
days.
The Fashion for Kids’ fashion shows were hugely interesting.
We had the chance to admire talented little
models, which is not often a case at this type of exhibitions.
The shows were organized very professionally.
In my opinion the show was the strongest point on the
expo agenda - says Danijela Pantic, from MiniMignon.
The brands boasted their latest collections for the autumn
/ winter 2018 and for the spring / summer 2019.
The clothes and garments presentation were complemented
with footwear and accessories of all kinds:
umbrellas, hair ornaments, jewellery, handbags and backpacks.
The participants and exhibitors emphasized the international
aspect of the Fashion for Kids.
