Trade shows all over again, yes it is about that time.

So if you read Part 1 and 2 of "So You Want a Career in the Fashion Industry?" then you have come up to speed to finally see how you can take your product to market and showcase your goods for stores to place orders. That's what it is all about right? Getting your name out and to see your product on the shelves of some nice stores.

Well, I am going to give you a brief list of trade shows that take place in the USA and their websites. You can do your research from there. Some shows can be very expensive and then their are some that are inexpensive.
