WestCoast Menswear Show Set at LAX
Despite tough economic times, organizers of the WestCoast Trend Show, set for Aug. 2–3 at the Embassy Suites LAX North, are expecting a record turnout of exhibitors.
Show producer Ken Haruta said early registration tallies indicate that the exhibitor and buyer turnouts should top previous numbers.
The 2-year-old show caters to upscale menswear and accessories retailers and typically serves as a barometer for upcoming Las Vegas shows. About 150 lines will be represented, including Jack Victor, Robert Graham, Tori Richard, Tommy Bahama, Scott Barber, Jhane Barnes, Hugo Boss, Haupt and Continental Leather.
Show hours are 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Aug. 2 and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Aug. 3. A cocktail party and bowling event will take place following the show on Aug. 2.
