| February is one of the most fashionable months of the year, thanks in large part to MAGIC, a huge apparel industry trade show held in Las Vegas every February and August, where emerging designers, established labels, buyers, and industry experts congregate to network and show off new styles for upcoming seasons. Our globe-trotting Fashion Girl was right there in the midst of it all, basking in the fabulousness of her favorite thing—FASHION! |

For four whole days, February 12 through 15, reps from every label, from Steve Madden to Karma Loop, descend upon the Las Vegas Convention Center where they set up booths to house new styles and current favorites from their collections.
Buyers from small boutiques and major department stores peruse the enormous space, selecting the hottest jewelry, accessories, lingerie, shoes, and fashion to sell in their stores. |

Wherever there’s fashion, you can bet you’ll see celebrities! There was Diddy, hosting a private party for his Sean John line; songstress Macy Gray playing the role of DJ at a Bebe party; actor Wilmer Valderrama and Linkin Park’s Chester Bennington, unveiling their new clothing lines, Calavena and Ve’Cel, respectively; plus dozens of other Hollywood tastemakers enjoying the week’s fashionable festivities! |

Besides all the clothes, accessories, and glamorous parties, MAGIC offers valuable insight into Apparel Manufacturing via industry-sponsored seminars.
From creating eco-friendly, cost-effective garments to sneak peeks at upcoming trends to new advancements in textile production, there were tons of courses available to keep experts and fashionistas abreast of this ever-changing industry. |
