The Online International Trade Show for Streetwear, Alternative, Rock & Cult Fashion
INTRODUCTION

It's been nearly six months since the launch of LondonedgeLIVE and we've had some great feedback from exhibitors and retailers alike. We have new exhibitors joining us all the time so we've highlighted some newbies that may not have crossed your path before.

We're also taking a look at what to order in for Halloween, putting the spotlight on shirts and paying homage to the much-missed King of Pop, Michael Jackson and his kooky sense of style.

As always, don't be shy - we want to hear from you so that we can provide the best e-bulletin on the planet. Tell us what YOU want

LONDONEDGELIVE NEWBIES

Yet again this month we have a selection of new exhibitors with some fantastic new products for you to browse through.

Too Fast Apparel is a New Jersey based manufacturer of punk rock, rockabilly and tattoo-inspired clothing and accessories for men, women and children. Check out their corset-backed tees for a feminine design with added attitude and watch out for their expanding line of accessories.

Presented by Black Extreme Design, Kick-n-Candy offer crazy and naughty tees for girls. The designs are based on the ideas and sketch paintings of former special effects make-up artist Bjorn Ernst who has created a contemporary female character with a sense of humour, cynicism and irony.

THE KING OF POP

Pinned brass medals, armbands, finger plasters, pyjamas in court and marching-band attire, if there's one thing about Michael Jackson's style is was that he was never a follower of fashion. Instead he chose to set musical and style trends with an image that will continue to live on. As fashionistas across the globe pay homage to Jacko, his style is seeping back in to our conscious so join in and stock up on MJ-themed fashions to satisfy a global appetite.

From 'Dirty Diana' to 'Keep It In The Closet', Jacko's style throughout the 80s and 90s revolved around his trademark tight black trousers teamed with a white vest and flowing white shirt. Serious Clothing's black denim peg pants at $29.50 (pictured) are the perfect starting point for this look. What's more, Serious Clothing is offering a 10% discount on any orders that come directly from LondonedgeLIVE so get ordering!

White socks and black shoes complete this look perfectly and it's an easy, wearable homage for your customers so offer them these black loafers (pictured) from Pleaser USA.

Michael Jackson certainly new how to rock an 80's leather jacket; just picture him in the 'Bad' video! However, it was his red jacket in 'Thriller' that is the most iconic image of Jacko. Visit Hard Leather Stuff and go for this scarlet leather jacket (pictured) at 71.38 EUR or their old military-style jackets for a more up-to-date Jacko look.
