JCK Las Vegas delivered a revamped shopping experience for buyers

JCK Las Vegas opened its edition this year with a revamped shopping experience for buyers. The show began on June 3rd, at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino. Buyers. It’s a new experience for the buyers unfolded with a new, convenient entrance wherein retailers were ushered into newly designed neighborhoods, organized by product category. The show comes on the heels of LUXURY's successful 3-day invitation-only event, and the much praised day-long JCK Talks education program.

LUXURY, the 3-day invite-only event, ran into a successful edition this year with a brand new ballroom, the addition of Prestige and LUXURY Watch, Elite Enclave and INTERVISION's interactive/360 degree shopping exhibit in the Elite Enclave ballroom. JCK Talks included an impressive line-up of seminars, which began with Frances Cole of Cole Media Management speaking to joint houses: LUXURY and JCK Las Vegas. The much talked about afternoon panel, Lab-Grown Diamonds: Threat or Opportunity (or Both?) too garnered a good attendance with its esteemed list of panelists.

At JCK Las Vegas, the fashion and lifestyle events on the new Showcase Stage included showcases by costume designer Lyn Paolo of ABC's Scandal and style guru Shannon Adducci of Departures, Hollywood Reporter and Billboard Magazine Hollywood costume designers Lauren Bott, FOX's Scream Queens and Ann Foley, ABC's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., alongside a panel of editors and bloggers providing commentary is also planned for this Stage.

The reimagined Design Center neighbourhood delivers three exhibiting phases (Kickstarter, Rising Star and Resident), for those seeking inspiration and art. Friday's Evening of Design feted the Design Center community, honoring top designer retailers and standout design talent with Editor's Choice Awards. Editor's Choice winners included Vicky Lew London, Doryn Wallach, and Deeta Thakural.
