Intimate Connections

LAS VEGAS - A month earlier than in years past, the 2008 Fall edition of the Las Vegas International Lingerie Show was a culmination of dedication and quality. The show, which ran from September 15-17 at the Rio, hosted a variety of exhibitors hailing from both the intimate apparel and adult novelty industries.

 

While many of the exhibitors were returning companies, there were also a few fresh faces, likely accounting for the eagerness of the attending buyers. When asked how traffic compared to previous events, many remarked that though numbers hadn't increased, those visiting their booths were large volume customers. The show was condensed into the main hall and one smaller room (featuring classic lingerie), which was a large contributor to buyer concentration.

 

Another highlight of ILS was the launch of Intimate, a semi-annual supplement to AVN Novelty Business magazine, featuring the best of both provocative and classic lingerie and accessories.
