Modern Retailing Trends


Interior Designers are working round the clock to create new and innovative ways to display merchandise. We've come a long way from T-racks and Mannequins. Now days merchandise is put on display with similar effects of a art showing. The lighting is focused on the merchandise and drawing the costumer in. This new style or "art display" fashions is definitely creating a buzz.

Trunk Shows

Thursday in New York City, lingerie designer Jenna Leigh held a trunk show for her line Jenna Leigh Lingerie. With the buzz of Valentines Day still in the air it was the perfect time for some celebs to browse and buy.




Jenna told Celebuzz..
“The turnout was amazing! Especially on a cold winter night in New York City! Everyone was excited to see my new Valentine’s collection with new spring looks as well. The Elle bra is a perfect match to Spencer Grammer’s wedding dress. Kim Kardashian and Mariah Carey are actually both fans of the Elle bra as well"
