Blue Platypus Designs Headed to Pool Tradeshow
Accepted by the Pool Tradeshow committee, Blue Platypus is ready and willing with their Fall 2005 Collection in tow.
(PREWB) June 1, 2005 -- Working diligently on their Fall 2005 collection,
Blue Platypus designs, www.blue-platypus.com is proud to be featured at the
prestigious POOL Tradeshow. Just around the corner starting August 29th at the
Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas, NV, the gathering of designers is
bound to be quite an experience. Among the recent buzz surrounding Blue
Platypus, the announcement of their acceptance at POOL takes the
cake.
About Pool Tradeshow: POOL is a minimal rail trade show designed
for the directional boutique market. POOL showcases many new designers each
season and features a range of lifestyle products including apparel, shoes,
books, home, art and music. POOL carefully curates each show, balancing fresh
talent with established brands. Each line participating at POOL is pre-screened
to allow buyers more time to place orders. POOL provides racks, tables, chairs
and signage to all vendors. Lounge areas are set up throughout the hall for your
convenience. This format reduces the set-up and registration fees by nearly 1/3
the cost of other trade shows. POOL makes it easier for brands to get the
much-needed visibility they deserve at the same time reducing headaches normally
expected from other shows. POOL has established a pricing schedule that
accommodates the needs of any designer. Exhibitors simply build their own show,
mixing & matching rails and tables to suit their needs. New designers have
the freedom to participate by rail and grow with their needs while established
brands have the option of privacy. Guest DJs spin daily, accompanied by art
installations and a full bar for your pleasure. History of POOL,: In 2000, Ronda
Walker of the Republica Showroom in LA conceived an idea to pool like minded
designers together in an intimate and friendly setting as an alternative to the
impersonal and misdirected mainstream market trade shows. POOL premiered as a
seasonal trade exchange in February 2001, showcasing young and established
fashion forward designers and is currently in its 9th season. Source: POOL

About Blue-Platypus: Taking cues only from themselves, the
masterminds behind Blue Platypus obviously have many ideas up the sleeves of
their already popular line of T-shirts. Inspired by vintage clothing and
furniture from the 1920’s through 1960’s, co- owners and designers Heidi and
Scooter have just started to make waves in the fashion industry. By launching a
website they are sharing their ideas with the public and offering a selection of
original wearable art for men and women.
While the name, Blue Platypus
is derived from a figment of the designer’s imagination; the designs are nothing
but raw, true beings. Now producing most of their own T-shirts to use as a
canvas, they utilize a wide variety of decorative techniques, from water base
and plastisol screen-printing, to discharge, flocking, studs, rhinestones,
appliqué and trim work are also among the interesting details. Almost everything
put out for each season is dyed in custom Blue Platypus colors.
Their
Fall 2005 line is to include more accessories, outerwear and skirts for women,
the Fall 2004 and Spring 2005 selection is available at www.blue-platypus.com.
Maintaining a high level of
quality, customer service and design originality is the core belief of Blue
Platypus. Heidi, a graduate of Otis with a degree in Fashion Design, and
University of Michigan with a degree in Biology co-owns and designs with
Scooter, an aerospace inspector for Northrop Grumman. Blue Platypus is located
in Southern California.
