The Lingerie Show at the Rio in Las Vegas was a success again. To see all suppliers under one roof makes it easy to discuss issues occurring through the year. Besides placing orders at their booths in order to take advantage of some discounts and earlier deliveries, it's always good to see and touch the new arrivals for the coming season, which gives a better impression of fabrics and colors.

Although most are ready for Halloween or Christmas soon, as a buyer one has to think ahead and already plan our Valentines Lingerie purchases. It seems pretty far away still, but to make sure to get the Lingerie in time it's very important to order early. Another reason, why the Lingerie Show is so important.

Good news from A.T. Design, which was always convincing for beautiful Silk Lingerie, the Athene Line. Due to quality problems, they stopped production for a while until they could stand up for the previous standard again. In November they supposed to get in a new silk shipment, which we are looking forward to. Vanessa and Tina provide a great customer service in any way. They ship out fast, provide quick replies and are very friendly. The quality of their other line of Lingerie, Leonie, is very convincing too. Especially the Charmeuse fabric, which feels like silk to the skin.

Some booths were very busy and we were not able to talk to all of our suppliers. We made it to our main suppliers though, which are Shirley, Dreamgirl, Leg Avenue, Hey Baby, A.T. Design and some more. We also made new contacts in order to approach new lines, to expand our assortment. An afternoon seems not enough to look at everything and talk to the people we know. But it was a wonderful experience again.

After spending hours at the show, we made it a tradition, to go to the buffet enjoying all different kinds of food, relaxing while talking about all impressions and thinking about future projects.
