Turkish Apparel Center Host New York Luxury Designer Trade Event Curated By The Lifestyle Agency®

NEW YORK - Sept. 23, 2018 - PRLog -- The Lifestyle Agency® along with, the Turkish Apparel Center (TAC) announces their inaugural day of fashion, trade and networking. This is a rare moment of opportunity to unite international Turkish designers and garment manufacturers with US based retail buyers, merchandisers, stylists, fashion trade journalists and other fashion insiders to foster economic opportunities that inspire commerce with the fashion capital with Europe and Africa.‎

Lifestyle Agency Founder, Jeremy Stennett says, "The fashion industry has been a one-sided elite club for so long, that the opening of the TAC and success of this event will serve as a springboard to level the playing field for those desiring to participate in the Global Fashion Marketplace." Stennett references that even someone as popular as Kanye West is having a hard time.  Mr. West shared his challenges with media outlets of how hard it has been trying get a foothold in the fashion industry, despite his fame. According to Ryan Reed of Rolling Stone Magazine, in his attempt to be recognized as a fashion designer, West addressed critical comments made by Fern Mallis, NYFW creator in a tweet saying, "...we have...our dreams, and you can step on our dreams and ideas all you want, but we won't stop fighting," he wrote. "We want to innovate, and we will win someday."

"This initiative with the TAC, spearheaded by our agency, will create a two-way path for innovative opportunities in international retail distribution and commerce for emerging fashion professionals, starting here in New York and fashion markets abroad," Stennett concluded.

Retailers of various sizes have been invited;  including buyers from JCPenney, Against All Odds (AAO), Lord and Taylor, Jimmy Jazz, South Pole, Porta Bella men's stores, Ilys, and more.

TAC is a Turkish government concept designed to inspire and cultivate increased participation in the US market place. This project highlights fostering better economic relationships for emerging Turkish brands to reach wider global markets inclusive of the US, Europe, the Middle East and North Africa.‎

The event takes place at the TAC Showroom, located at 10 E. 34th Street, 8th Floor, New York, NY 10018. Its curated pool of international designers, are ready to do business with attendees of this invite-only event on Tuesday, September 25th.‎
