NY Now
From Aug. 3-5, NY Now’s Luxury Lifestyle section will exhibit established brands while the Curated program will highlight up-and-coming designers.
New York—NY Now has announced its Summer 2025 Market, featuring newness within the Luxury Lifestyle section.

The biannual gift, home, and accessories wholesale trade show is slated for Aug. 3-5 at the Jacob Javits Center in New York City.

Luxury Lifestyle is one section within the show, showcasing high-end jewelry in a strategic assemblage of current and collectable designs for retailers looking to source and discover best sellers for their stores, organizers said.

The area caters to stores that are influential in forming the landscape of today’s consumer market, said NY Now, drawing retailers from the United States as well as a selection of international buyers.

Luxury Lifestyle focuses on exhibiting established brands, including Brooke Gregson, Heather B. Moore, Bondeye Jewelry, Eden Presley, Carolina Neves, Dana Kellin, and Annette Ferdinandsen.

A newly minted Luxury Lifestyle lounge will debut this year to serve as a space to relax and use as a remote workstation. It will be accessible throughout the show and is exclusive to Luxury Lifestyle buyers and exhibitors.

The Luxury Lifestyle section also hosts the show’s Curated program, which debuted last year, where up-and-coming designers are highlighted.

The Curated program offers on-going education, turn-key exhibit space, and one-on-one guidance, identifying and fostering talent while increasing the designers’ abilities to forge successful and sustainable partnerships with retailers.

Designers in the Curated program include 12th House, Dorian Webb, Sunlit Fine Jewelry, Hilary Finck Jewelry, and more.

Education sessions will also run as part of the Community Chat programming at NY Now’s Central Hub.

Luxury Lifestyle Curator Simone Waldron will be hosting her panel, “The Luxury Experience Edit: Story, Space, & the Future of Selling” on Aug. 3 at 1 p.m.

The session will include Paul Schneider, owner of Twist, and other panelists discussing the future of selling in an editorial era.

“Luxury Lifestyle and the emerging designer collections exhibiting in Curated are among the most exciting and eagerly anticipated features of our event,” said Matthew Mathiasen, show director of NY Now.

“We are excited to introduce a new layout and added amenities that create an elegant and sophisticated environment in which to highlight on-trend designs and heirloom quality collections, while also establishing a productive buying opportunity and a seamless experience for our attendees.”
