Couture Announces New Show in Miami
The jewelry trade show is launching its first open-to-the-public event in Coconut Grove this November.
Couture Coconut Grove, its debut public show, will be held at The Hangar at Regatta Harbour from Nov. 20-22.
Miami—Couture has announced it is bringing a new show to Miami.
The event, its first open-to-the-public show, will be held this fall at The Hangar at Regatta Harbour, located in Coconut Grove, an upscale neighborhood in Miami.
Couture Coconut Grove, which has been dubbed “The World’s Greatest Trunk Show,” will allow exhibitors to bring their designs to a new audience of collectors and enthusiasts and engage with consumers on a personal level.
It is an expansion of the show’s annual trade-only event, which has taken place in Las Vegas for more than three decades.
“For years we’ve been asked to expand the energy of Couture to a broader audience; to create greater opportunities for thoughtfully and strategically growing your businesses,” show organizers said in an email announcement sent to its community last week.
Organizers said they will apply a “discerning eye” to the new show’s floor layout, ensuring attendees experience a range of taste in the craftsmanship on display.
Couture Coconut Grove is slated for Nov. 20-22, following the U.S. Antique Shows’ debut event, The Coconut Grove Jewelry and Watch Show (CGJWS), which will be held at the same venue from Nov. 14-16.
Space is “extremely limited” and will include a selection of “best-in-class” brands across categories, organizers said.
Interested exhibitors can apply on the Couture website.
