INTRO
Welcome to our first ever LondonedgeLIVE e-bulletin where you’ll get a first look at new exhibitor product ranges, a first shout at end-of-line stock and an opportunity to source short-order alternative merchandise. LondonedgeLIVE was designed to help fill the gap between the real-time Londonedge, Londoncentral and LENY trade shows and give buyers 24 hour access to their potential target brands.
Here at LondonedgeLIVE you’ll find the best in gothic, punk, rock, emo and streetwear fashion and accessories. Dig around and you’ll find quality medieval designs from Baeres / Fashion X, emo skinny jeans from Ethic Star and gothic essentials at Jordash. Germany’s leather specialists Hard Leather Stuff offer gothic coats, boots, jackets and bags whilst LA legends Lip Service are the punk rock fashion pioneers and Glasgow’s Chemical Industries have the formula for kick-ass alternative streetwear.
In the bulletin below, we’ve examined Lady GaGa’s taste for fashion, fair-trade clothing, the neo-grunge trend and put the spotlight on a couple of exhibitors that we think you might be interested in. Enjoy!

NEO-GRUNGE REPLACES NEW GOTH

Characterised by heavy layering, natural colours and a fusion of tweed, knits and flannel, neo-grunge incorporates key garments including lumberjack shirts, kilts, bleached jeans, colourful leggings and knitted hats.
