Similar to what SXSW did for musicians John Mayer in 2000 and Florence and the Machine in ’08, Style X showcased emerging brands from around the world during the two-day event that kicked off with Shop Hop, a media-exclusive tour of up-and-coming designers. Other events, open to the public, included panel discussions on how to break into the fashion biz, interactive booths, fashion shows modeled by musicians and pop-up retail stores. |

Along with apparel and accessories, brands like X Ray Jeans, Idylwild, Lumete Eyewear and American Apparel (which brought more than 20,000 reduced items for sale), visitors had a chance to spy the latest from footwear brands Bed Stu, Zodiac, Keds and HELM Handmade Boots. —Angela Velasquez |
