Our TexWorld excursion. We trekked over to the Javitz Center for the TexWorld trade show this week. The TexWorld folks were nice enough to give Manufacture New York a booth to show what we're doing about bringing garment manufacturing back to The United States, and they let American Fashion Podcast borrow a conference room to record this episode on-site at the show. While there, we interviewed designers Alexandra Lin and Fran Knight who were visiting from Florida, as well as retailer/designer Woody Pierce of The Gentleman Place in Brooklyn, and Andrew Levy from the fashion tech start-up Ovio. references: * TexWorld USA * lin.com/">Alexandra Lin * The Gentlemen's Shop * Ovio * E-Commerce Site Offers Pre-Worn Wedding Gowns (WWD / paywall)
