Only an event like this (and the opportunity to drop by and visit my best friend since childhood) is going to get me to drive the flat, corn-lined highways through the length of Illinois for probably the 100th time.
The event is Chicago’s Pop-up Garment District hosted by Apparel Industry Board, Inc. (AIBI) on May 10th-11th, 2024. This fashion entrepreneur resource fair will bring together the midwest’s finest fabric and trim vendors, sewing contractors, and service providers like patternmakers and technical designers. There will be plenty of low MOQ wholesale sourcing options whether you are just starting your brand or are ready to scale.
I’ll be there as one of the exhibitors, so come see me! I’d love to meet you in person and chat about making fashion that fits. If you plan on coming, let me know.
The event is free to attend and you can register here. It will be held at the Industrial Council of Nearwest Chicago Make City Business Incubator at 320 N Damen St, Chicago IL 60612.
