Considered the leading trade show for intimate apparel and swimwear in North America, Curve—a division of Comexposium—is held bi-annually in New York and Los Angeles, as well as annually in Paris with partner show Salon International de la Lingerie. Additionally, a Canadian regional summer show, Curve Montreal, takes place on August 11-12th, 2024. Buyers and press can sign up for Curve’s Summer shows here: CURVE REGISTRATION.
“This season at Curve, we are introducing a variety of exciting new elements” CEO of Comexposium, Raphael Camp states. “One highlight is our Bridal Salon, where we have invited 20 prominent brands to showcase their bridal collections. This initiative reflects the increasing trend of brides investing more in themselves leading up to the wedding, with a focus on items like robes and lingerie. Renowned brands such as Aubade and Lise Charmel will be featured, marking our first venture into spotlighting bridal intimates in the lingerie space.”
Camp then talks about trends in pop culture and how this will affect the lingerie industry. “Additionally, we are observing a significant trend of lingerie-inspired fashion on red carpets. At events such as the Met Gala and award shows, we’ve been seeing trends of lace, sheers, and corsets, indicating a shift towards lingerie as outerwear. Celebrities embracing this trend have been a focal point in our latest issue of Revealed magazine, which will be available at the show and is currently accessible online. This trend is poised to transform the lingerie industry as more people seek to emulate these high-profile looks” Camp comments.
Camp eagerly anticipates the collaborations attendees will enjoy this season at the Javits Center. “In another exciting development, we are collaborating with the UK trade show Wonderland for our New York show. This collaboration will feature 10 finalists, a mix of established and emerging names. Each finalist will present a look at the show, and buyers from various retailers can vote for their favorite brand via a QR code. This fun and interactive part of our show includes incentives as well for those who vote, as well as a special reward for the winning UK brand, a booth at our February 2025 edition.”
Camp ensures to highlight the luxury activations and insightful panels available to buyers who attend. “Once again, we are also offering a range of workshops and activations for our attendees. Our focus is on ensuring all retailers feel welcomed and comfortable at the Curve show, whether they are traveling locally or from abroad. Our NY show will include panels with industry leaders, complimentary 15-minute chair massages on the show floor, and daily performances, runway shows, and fit workshops.”
In his closing remarks, he mentions how excited he is to welcome all guests next month. “I am thrilled to return to the Javits Center this summer. The Curve team has been hard at work to provide a seamless and enjoyable experience for all attendees, from planning your trip to enjoying the show itself.”
