The PlayGuide is published once a year and distributed free of charge at the shows. It is also available online and may be consulted, throughout the year, at www.playguide.fr.
Partners The Kid's Wear team, in conjunction with the brand “Wool and the Gang,” are actually knitting a long, soft scarf, symbolically linking the 50 nationalities present each season at the three fairs: crossroads of the cultures and feelings of all the countries represented there.
In addition, Izze Sparkling Juice will be on hand to distribute complimentary refreshments.
The Illustrations The joyous and fresh world of artist Tinou Le Joly Sénoville returns with this season's appropriately snowy illustration found on the Playtime New York website, invitations and show catalog.
Playtime New York offers a comprehensive international selection of today's best collections in the children's and maternity marketplace. The show encompasses infant and children's clothing, shoes and accessories, baby gear, toys, deco/design products, childcare and maternity.
The stunning venue, 82 Mercer, reflects both a creative and commercial style, in one of New York's trendiest neighborhoods. The 25,000 square foot space features a loft design, brick walls, hardwood flooring, cast iron columns and arched passageways.
