Margin to showcase host of new brands<br />
27 July 2010 | By Suzanne Bearne<br />
Streetwear trade show Margin has signed a raft of new  brands to its August edition.</p>
<p>UK brands making their UK trade show debut include womenswear brands Eva Evanovich and ALQ UK, as well as men’s denimwear from Makia in Finland, Spain’s Garcia Madrid and Articalizm in Japan.</p>
<p>The show also marks the return of brands such as cult brand Silas, womenswear and accessories brand OBEY and street fashion brands WeSc, Gravis Vestal and True Love after a departure of over two years from UK tradeshows.</p>
<p>Other collections making their debut include London-based 1 in a 100 which produces limited-edition artist prints, Ideologie from America with organic and ethical clothing and Trikki which offers colourful t-shirts and cut-and-sew jackets. </p>
<p>Odysseas Constantine, the organiser of Margin, said: “Whilst Margin is primarily a launch-pad for new design talent, we’re happy to welcome credible larger brands when they’re independent-minded to show an edited selection of their most directional product that we feel is relevant to the key indie, department and multiply buyers that regularly visit us.”</p>
<p>Margin will run from August 1 to 2 at The Music Rooms, South Molton Lane in London.
