Attention Handbag Designers! 👜 Complimentary 1-on-1 Review + NY NOW Opportunity
Let’s Elevate Your Handbag Brand. Limited space, so book now!
Hi, and hope you had a great weekend!
I’m reaching out personally to offer you something I don’t extend often—a complimentary one-on-one handbag review with me, and The It Bag, debuting at NY NOW Summer 2025 at the Javits Center in New York City.. After nearly two decades of championing independent handbag designers, I’m more passionate than ever about helping talented creatives like you reach their full potential. Whether you're refining your bestsellers or navigating your next growth move, I’d love to provide feedback and insight, and share what this new installation can do for you and your brand. This is my way of showing how truly invested I am in your success.
BOOK MY HANDBAG ONE-ON-ONE NOW
After seeing the impact of The Handbag Awards on our tradeshow installation, I developed The It Bag as a fresh, high-visibility platform where emerging handbag designers can break through. Think of it as a curated Saks-style experience within the tradeshow floor—created specifically for brands ready to scale their retail footprint.
Here’s what’s in it for you:
Premier placement in one of NY NOW’s most trafficked areas
The chance for buyers to instantly envision your bags in their stores
Access to an exclusive designer community + dedicated webinar prep
Marketing support via NY NOW's media network and my own network
Guest opportunity on my Handbag Designer 101 podcast
(An additional) 1-on-1 review from me, and strategic steps to help you stand out
There are two curated exhibitor packages (shared or solo) starting at $2,979, designed to give you everything you need to showcase your best work professionally and beautifully. NY NOW is one of the most powerful marketplaces for connecting with tastemakers, major retailers, and top boutiques from around the world. If you’re ready to grow, this is the moment.
