American made line Knickerocker presented sassy handmade lingerie in the newly added gallery area, designed for up and coming talent in the heart of the show floor. French line PSR Underwear presented elegant and innovative underwear for men, and the Romanian powerhouse Jolidon offered fashionable lingerie, men's underwear, and swimwear for immediate delivery while longtime favorite design house, Eveden provided high quality bra fitting seminars to educate front line sales teams with all the necessary tools to provide the best service.

A Retailers Networking Breakfast and Wine & Cheese Party was held for the first time, which provided a platform for industry networking to flourish and partnerships to be forged. Prior to the show, many of the local and international buyers such as Charmelle 28, A Tropical Affair, My Boudoir, and Tres Jolie took advantage of the dedicated appointment facilitator with a high number of online bookings recorded for the two days. Luxe Lingerie buyer said "Curve Las Vegas was a concentrated and focused powerful show."
