Breaking boundaries and defining trends, Top Drawer, the UK’s leading design-led lifestyle and interiors trade show, returns to Olympia London from 8-10 September, bringing an unmissable, unique edit of over 1,000 carefully curated brands.

Showcasing everything from cutting-edge to classic design and firm favourites to undiscovered names—creative retailers and interior professionals will have access to the very best and newest design-led homeware and lifestyle products at the A/W19 edition of Top Drawer.

The 10 beautifully curated and presented sectors–Home, Gift, Fashion, Greetings & Stationery, Play, Pulse & Spotted, Craft, Food Emporium, Wellbeing and the brand new Retail Clinics–as well as the inspirational show features will provide an unrivalled experience for buyers to learn about the latest trends, gain expert advice, and help them successfully source products for the new season.     

NEW THIS EDITION!

PULSE, now co-located with Top Drawer for the very first time and joined with Spotted, will give those visitors looking for emerging talent and new names access to original and innovative brands.

Of the enhanced offering, Top Drawer Show Director – Alejandra Campos said: “Top Drawer has always been at the forefront of industry trends and cutting-edge content. The co-location with Pulse, which is known for presenting the next wave of design talent, makes for the perfect complement to our existing offering. With the amalgamation of the two shows, visitors will have the ability to explore the largest presentation of commercially-ready emerging brands and design, as well as the industry’s bigger, more established names.”
