T.O.P.S. Reaches Out to New Buyers
I own a fashion boutique—what can the Off-Price Show offer me?
Where can I find below wholesale deals on the really hot fashions?
What’s the best strategy for shopping the Show?
T.O.P.S., the Off-Price Show’s retailer outreach program, is designed to answer those questions and others for both long-term and new buyers attending the Show. T.O.P.S. expert staff will be on hand at the upcoming February Show to educate Las Vegas Fashion Week buyers about the great fashion buying opportunities available at the Show.
Located in the Sands Expo lobby adjacent to the Show Registration counters, the T.O.P.S. exhibit will showcase top fashions selected by “Trend Spotters,” students from the International Academy of Design & Technology (IADT) who will be shopping the Show floor. The fashions, which will change daily, will be displayed on mannequins in the T.O.P.S. exhibit. The IADT students will also be modeling selected outfits throughout the Sands Expo and in the main hallway outside the Venetian Ballrooms.
“T.O.P.S. was a great success at the August Show,” says Don Browne, Off-Price Specialist Center marketing director. “The IADT students did a wonderful job selecting on-trend fashions. Apparel retailers are hungry for information and tips on how they can build their bottom line. It all starts with buying. Our tag line has been ‘you have to buy right to sell right.’ The T.O.P.S. program is there to help buyers do just that.”
New-Buyer Tours will take place throughout the Show. Seasoned buying expert David Abate will lead the tours, providing participants with an overview of the Show floor, answering questions, and offering tips on how to get the most out of the off-price buying experience. Interested buyers should stop by the T.O.P.S. exhibit for more information.
