The Lingerie Americas Show
MARCH 2, 3, 4 2003
LINGERIE AMERICAS second edition asserts its presence in the US with a record number of International Brands which presented their Fall-Winter 2003 collections in the Altman Building / Metropolitan Pavilion on 18th Street in Manhattan.
LINGERIE AMERICAS created a buzz in the industry with a series of seminars led by key Lingerie experts, all partners and supporters of this highly professional Show:
· Dupont, in addition to its informational and interactive forum conducted seminars about their latest Fiber innovations and their practical implementation in actual products
· NPD Fashion World, the premier fashion intelligence source surprised the audience with its market observations and astute recommendations to the industry.
· Promostyl made a presentation about the season’s trends in addition to its forum which showcased a selection of styles in a boudoir environment.
Although the flow of visitors was steady over the 3-day period and a significant number of orders was placed, management acknowledges a decrease in general attendance: 1,472 buyers visited LINGERIE AMERICAS which represents a 8% decrease in comparison to August.
The current economic and international context made retailers from outside the North East cancelled their travel plans.
However Department Stores Buyers along with a large number of North East best Specialty Stores were well represented.
Exhibitors were happy to reconnect with this high-quality audience
which is LINGERIE AMERICAS’ signature.
LINGERIE AMERICAS always searching for excellence will return to the same location, the Altman Building and Metropolitan Pavilion on August 3, 4, 5 2003 to showcase the Spring-Summer 2004 collections.

What Are Politics?
A kid goes to his dad and asks, "Dad, what are politics?"
His dad replies, " Put it this way; I am the breadwinner of the family so I am
capitalism. Your mom is the owner of the money so she is government. The government is the provider for the people so you are the people. Your baby brother will be the future, and the nanny is the working class. Now think about that."
So he went to bed. He was woken by his brother. The baby had pooped in his
diaper. He went to tell his parents, but he only found his mom asleep in the bed. He didn't want to wake her, so he went to the nanny. The door was locked. He checked through a hole and saw the dad in bed with the nanny. He went back to bed. The next morning, he went to his dad and said, "Dad i know what you mean now."
"You do? Tell me."
"OK, while capitalism is screwing the working class, the government is sound asleep, while the people are watching the future being pooped on!!!"
