“It was my first time attending the August edition of Moda Manhattan; it definitely exceeded my expectations. The quality of vendors was above average and the price points were what I was looking for. I thought the shuttle buses were a great convenience to the retailers. I look forward to attending future shows.”

This was the first Moda Manhattan show Parkhurst exhibited in and it was an enormous success. With the great help of Dee Gratz Jones, we were able to get into the show at the 11th hour. We were busy with customers from the start of the show to the finish, and I mean finish – we were writing straight up to the close of the show. We wrote 30 orders in three days and gave out over 75 sets of catalogs. This is something that would have never happened in our showroom. Exposure to all the retailers at Moda Manhattan was a key component to the success of the show for Parkhurst. We also made contact with four multi-store chains, including a division of J. Crew. We look forward to participating in the upcoming August show.

This past May edition of Moda Manhattan was a good show for us. We felt the traffic and the quality of the buyers who attended the show were great. We were able to meet our sales goals and thought that Dee Gratz Jones could not have been more helpful, as well as the rest of the Moda team. The appearance of the show was visually very bright, airy and cheerful. We feel the May market is very important for seasonal stores and they definitely came to the show.”

After many speculations on how this May market was going to be we are happy to report that Moda Manhattan was an amazing show for us. Even though we experienced a different traffic pattern than usual, our numbers were exceptional at the end of the show. As always, the Moda Manhattan team did a great job in helping out both the exhibitors and the buyers, which is the most important part of this business…customer service. Our buyers only had good comments about the show which included good location, service, exhibitors, and food. These are the reasons that all the buyers at Moda Manhattan are happy and attend season after season. We have only good things to say about Moda Manhattan and its team.

"Since we do all of our buying in New York now, we would not miss Moda Manhattan. There is no need to make appointments with our showroom vendors because we are seeing more of them here. We found a ton of new merchandise at this edition. Shopping the show is made easy due to the well-planned layout and generous booth spacing; this makes traffic at the show flow well and shopping less hectic. I really appreciate the usefulness of the show directory. Moda Manhattan is a very pleasant experience for us and I look forward to attending future shows."

"Elizabeth Grace has been the easiest brand launch I have ever worked on, and I must give credit to Moda which has been our launching pad. Moda has successfully provided us with an environment where we can capitalize on the advanced contemporary/missy market. Our customer needs the missy fit but demands contemporary styling and these educated buyers shop Moda. The reaction that we have received from our premium denim and woven collections has been tremendous and we look forward to many shows to come!"
