ITALY@MRketNY Preview
This Sunday - January 22nd - marks the sixth anniversary of "MRket" New York - the most important menswear tradeshow of the better/luxury division of the US market. An impressive list of retailers from around the world - US, Canada and the Carribean will be best represented - will gather to see the new wares brought to you by the "Made in Italy" division of the show which will feature over 30 Italian companies all showcasing their Fall / Winter collections. Directed by the Italian Trade Commission, the "Made in Italy" umbrella will be located in Hall 3E/D of the Jacob Javits Center. The list of all the brands that will be presented is below. The companies seem to represent a wide demographic of menswear clientele running the gamut from sharp Italian tailoring to graphic urban streetwear to special and one-of-a-kind accessories. Every company has something special to offer at this tradeshow - anything from three-quarter length tweed coats to tophats to cashmere socks. I personally am excited to view Borsalino's hats, Carraro's impeccable outerwear, Dino Bigioni's selection of quintessential Italian shoes, and Giudice's made-to-measure selection.

Manzoni, Borsalino, Brador, Bresciani, Camiceria Coral, Carraro, Codice, Dino Bigioni, Dolcepunta, Eurotex, Ferrante, FLY 3, Gimo’s, Giovanni Taccaliti Camiceria, Giudice, Italo Ferretti, LBM 1911, Luciano Moresco, Luigi Bianchi Mantova, Marchesi di Como, Marcoliani Milano, Messori, Montechiaro, Maremma, Moorer, Officina Del Profumo, R.B. 2000, Red, Reporter, Ingram, Silvio Fiorello, Stefano Capaldi, Tino Cosma, Valstar, Villa Delmitia, Yashi Yamamuri.
