This is COTERIE.
How It Started
It all starts with New York, the birthplace of trends and home of COTERIE. What began in the 80s as 25 brands at the Plaza Hotel is now the industry's premier convergence point, showcasing 1000+ brands twice yearly to an international community of buyers, retailers, and influencers. Here, relationships form, trends emerge, and pivotal industry shifts occur.
Where It Is Now
Today, COTERIE is more than a premier trade event, it's a curated experience connecting the industry and shaping the future. Immersive and impactful, COTERIE nurtures relationships in an intimate manner. Based in New York, we capture cultural and industry shifts as they happen, attracting an international crowd open to the discovery that makes New York fashion's epicenter.
