Las Vegas, NV – March 3, 2025 – The third semi-annual edition of the co-located WWIN (Womenswear in Nevada) Show and Las Vegas Apparel (LVA) market wrapped up its latest Las Vegas Fashion Week event, February 9-12, 2025, at the Expo at World Market Center Las Vegas. This year's event featured an enhanced show floor layout, the debut of The Men’s Edit, and signature premier amenities—offering buyers a seamless and productive buying experience.

"WWIN has always been about creating a dynamic ecosystem where brands and buyers can connect in meaningful ways, and this year’s event reinforced that vision,” said Mel Montes, VP of WWIN. “The synergy across categories, the energy on the show floor, and the strength of our exhibitor and retailer community continue to flourish. As we evolve, we remain committed to fostering an environment where business gets done, relationships are strengthened, and opportunities are abundant."

The markets, which showcased a combined 1,500+ lines across the show floor, welcomed buyers from 43 states and 19 international countries, with most visiting from the West and Midwest regions.

“The feedback after the markets always speaks for itself. Buyers and exhibitors continue to express their gratitude for the friendliness, hospitality and easy-to-navigate market format that LVA fosters,” said Caron Stover, ANDMORESM SVP, Apparel. "While Las Vegas Fashion Week can be a hectic sourcing experience, LVA stands out by offering a seamless, stress-free, and productive environment tailored for every attendee."

As Las Vegas Apparel and WWIN continue to grow, exhibitors are seeing new opportunities, and buyers are taking note. With an expanding marketplace and standout hospitality, both shows are proving The Expo at World Market Center Las Vegas to be an essential stop during Las Vegas Fashion Week.

“In an economy where many markets are shrinking or staying the same size, Las Vegas Apparel is a market that is growing for us every show,” said Michael Shim, VP of Timing/Lumiere.

Albert Chi, President of Spin USA, added, “Las Vegas Apparel has been growing every single show. With the addition of WWIN, we are noticing even more positive growth and have even opened new accounts with buyers attending for WWIN!”

While brands noted the market’s growth, buyers reiterated their appreciation of LVA and WWIN’s hospitality.

“This venue takes such good care of its buyers, from breakfast and lunch, to snacks and waters around the floor to make sure we are hydrated,” said Lu Knueven, owner of Artistic Works by Lu in Levenworth, KS, and Springfield, MO. “LVA is leading in fashion, and with so many of the largest brands we work with at LVA, we are sure to continue coming back!”

New buyer, Chelsey Jones, owner of CJ Lines in Millry, AL, added, “This was our first trip to Vegas and we will definitely be back. Our market experience was great, we loved the layout of the show and we appreciate all the amenities to make it easier for buyers. This is our new favorite market!”

In addition to hallmark women’s contemporary, young contemporary, and accessories categories, the highly anticipated debut of The Men’s Edit exceeded expectations, proving that there is a strong demand for a men’s market within Las Vegas. The launch was met with enthusiasm from both exhibitors and buyers, demonstrating that this new category has the potential to reposition Las Vegas as a key destination for menswear. With immediate interest from new brands and requests for expanded floor space, The Men’s Edit is poised for significant growth, further strengthening WWIN’s ecosystem.

The next co-located edition of WWIN and LVA returns August 17-20, 2025, at The Expo at World Market Center Las Vegas. For more information about WWIN and Las Vegas Apparel and to stay updated on future events, please visit www.wwinshow.com and www.lasvegas-apparel.com.
