Why Exhibit

Align Yourself with the Stars

From the carefully vetted boutique environment for a selected group of international and domestic designers to a highly luxurious, intimate setting for world class retailers, Couture provides the perfect venue for brands looking to elevate and secure their place in the luxury market. Couture is inimitable, offering the most highly sought after audience of retailers; the quintessential level of haute designers; and the most comprehensive consumer and trade press attendance all in one location. Couture is the business of luxury and the destination to build and strengthen important relationships.

Couture offers an array of exhibiting opportunities to meet the needs of each designer. Couture exhibitors may be found in one of the following locations:

  1. Salon Collection Floor: for aligning collections with a matrix of established international designers or one-of-kind artisan designers.
  2. The Design Atelier – for the emerging designer
  3. Private Ballrooms – for the brand presence
  4. Fairway Villas – private by appointment only
  5. (Couture Time) Tower Suites - for the timepiece brands desiring an even more luxurious and relaxed environment; ideal for appointments and showcasing mutliple brands.
