Every major U.S. apparel and fashion trade show for 2027, month by month: the wholesale clothing markets boutique buyers shop, the regional rep-driven markets, the footwear, swim, kids and outdoor shows, the textile and sourcing fairs and the industry conferences, with dates pulled from the organizers' own sites and checked again on September 6, 2026. Then the part most calendars skip: how a brand writes B2B orders at the booth and gets them into the ERP without keying them twice.
For most U.S. brands the anchors are MAGIC Las Vegas (February 16 to 18, and again in August), Coterie New York (February and September) and the regional markets in Atlanta, Dallas and Los Angeles, which each run five times a year. Category shows fill the gaps: SwimShow and Cabana for swim, FFANY for footwear, Curve for intimates, Playtime for children's, Outdoor Retailer and The TRAFFIC Show for outdoor and active, ASD Market Week for value and moderate price points. New for 2027: MAGIC Nashville, May 11 to 12. Boutique and specialty buyers shop the regional markets; department store buyers concentrate at Coterie and MAGIC. Pick two or three that match your category and buyer, then make sure the back office can ship what the booth writes.
Dates below are the exhibit-hall days. Where a 2027 date had not been posted yet, the row says so and gives the 2026 dates so you can pencil in the week. Show names link to the organizer's own page. Confirm before you book travel; organizers move dates, and Dallas has already announced a one-week shift for January 2028.

Sourcing shows are where the season starts: fabric, trim, leather, print design and the factories that cut and sew. Nobody writes a wholesale order at these. Your design and production people go, they collect headers and quotes, and the styles that come out of it are what your reps sell six to nine months later at MAGIC or Coterie.
The West Coast pair is LA Textile at the California Market Center and Texworld Los Angeles, which now runs with Apparel Sourcing LA, Home Textiles Sourcing and Interfilière for intimates, swim and activewear. On the East Coast it is Texworld NYC and Première Vision New York, which sit at opposite ends of the price ladder: Texworld is volume and global mills, Première Vision is European fabrics for designer and better-priced lines. Denim has its own room at Kingpins.
| Show | 2027 dates | Where | What you source there |
|---|---|---|---|
| Première Vision New York | Jan 19 to 20, plus a July edition | New York, NY (Tribeca Rooftop + 360°) | European and premium fabrics, leather, trims, accessories and textile design.

Two campuses, five shows, three days. At the Las Vegas Convention Center, MAGIC, PROJECT, SOURCING at MAGIC and OFFPRICE run February 16 to 18. Downtown at The Expo at World Market Center, WWIN, Las Vegas Apparel and The Men's Edit run February 15 to 17.
WWIN (Womenswear In Nevada) is the moderate and better women's show, Las Vegas Apparel is ANDMORE's year-round showroom market, and The Men's Edit is the menswear section co-located with them. All three run downtown, a shuttle ride from the convention center, and buyers cover both campuses, so a brand exhibiting at one is still competing for the same appointment slots as the other. The August edition follows the same shape; Informa had not posted August 2027 dates as of September 6, 2026, and the 2026 August show ran August 10 to 12. Las Vegas gets a third apparel week in March, when ASD Market Week fills the same convention center with value and moderate price points.
Two changes since the 2026 calendar: MAGIC added a Nashville edition (May 11 to 12, 2027), and Outdoor Retailer left Salt Lake City for Minneapolis in August. If you exhibit at MAGIC, Project or Coterie, the exhibiting guide covers booth prep, buyer appointments and the post-show checklist. This page stays on dates and order flow.
Start with the show where your buyer already has an appointment book, then add one category show. A women's contemporary line belongs at Coterie or MAGIC first and a regional market second; a swim line belongs at SwimShow first and Coterie second.

At a booth the order gets written one of three ways: a rep writes it on an iPad in AIMS360 RemoteLink, the buyer places it in a B2B platform they already use such as JOOR or NuORDER, or it goes on paper and someone keys it after the show. The first two land in AIMS360 without re-keying. The third is where wrong sizes, missed ship windows and a two-week delay come from. Whichever way it arrives, the order is allocated against one stock record, picked, shipped and invoiced from the same system. Choosing between JOOR, NuORDER, RepSpark, Brandboom, Faire, Shopify B2B and your own portal is its own decision; the wholesale B2B platforms guide compares them.
| How the order is written | Who drives it | How it reaches AIMS360 | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| RemoteLink on iPad | Your rep, at the booth or in a showroom | Arrives as imported once the iPad reconnects; no download and review step | Appointment selling, showroom weeks, reps on the road |
| JOOR, NuORDER, RepSpark, Brandboom | The buyer, in the platform their store already uses | Imports through the B2B order import (automatic for JOOR, NuORDER and Brandboom, no re-keying for RepSpark); AIMS360 publishes styles and available to sell to the platform | Department stores and boutiques that order in a marketplace; Coterie's JOOR extension |
| WebLink portal | The buyer, after the show | Orders queue for review, then import; duplicates and credit holds get caught before they hit stock | Reorders and at-once from accounts you already have |
| Paper order form | Anyone | Keyed by hand into AIMS360 later | Backup only. Every keyed order is a chance to ship the wrong size |
Most trade show problems are decided two weeks before the show. This is the checklist that lets a rep write, scan and land orders instead of taking notes.
| Step | What to do in AIMS360 | Why it matters at the booth |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Create the season's products | Enter every style with its colors, sizes, prices, images and descriptions in styles and colors. One record per style, with the style, color and size matrix the warehouse will pick against. | Everything downstream, from the line sheet to the UCC-128 label, reads from this record. |
| 2. Publish to every sales channel | Send the line to the B2B platforms your buyers use, NuORDER, JOOR, RepSpark, Brandboom, to RemoteLink for your reps, to WebLink for direct accounts, and to Shopify for DTC and Shopify B2B. | Buyers see the same line and the same open to sell wherever they order. Not sure which platform? See the wholesale B2B platforms guide. |
| 3. Barcode the samples | Print and hang a style barcode on every sample going to the show. If you sell prepacks, print prepack barcodes too, one per pack type. | A rep scans the sample in RemoteLink to add style and color, then keys the size run. Prepack barcodes let the rep order by pack type instead of building it size by size. |
| 4. Load line sheets and prices | Build the season's line sheets and confirm each account's price sheet and terms are current. | The buyer sees their price, not the list price, and the deposit or terms are already agreed. |
| 5. Book buyer appointments | Email and call your key accounts and any target department stores weeks ahead. Most of the big shows publish a buyer list for exhibitors. | Walk-up traffic fills gaps; appointments fill the order book. |
| 6. Be ready to say yes to a major retailer | If a department store or chain approaches you at the show and you already run AIMS360, you can tell the buyer you will be EDI compliant within 30 to 60 days. AIMS360 runs EDI natively for 350+ retailers, with the major retailer programs already mapped. | A pre-book order for a future season is usually deliverable on that timeline. Brands without EDI in place lose the account before the first PO. |
| Step | What happens in AIMS360 |
|---|---|
| 1. Land | RemoteLink orders show as imported. JOOR, NuORDER and Brandboom orders import automatically; RepSpark orders arrive as AIMS360 sales orders with no re-keying. A new account opened at the booth arrives on hold, reason "customer account pending approval," until credit signs off. |
| 2. Allocate to stock or production | At-once lines allocate to stock on hand. Pre-book lines allocate to work in process with a delivery date. Where there is no production yet, AIMS360 creates it from the allocation: an allocated vendor purchase order for finished goods, or a cut ticket, garment dye ticket or finishing ticket tracked through production process tracking and WIP transfer tracking, with the bill of materials behind it. Wholesale, EDI and marketplace commitments are subtracted before Shopify sees sellable inventory, so the booth cannot oversell the web store. See intelligent allocation and production. |
| 3. Pick, pack, ship | Orders release to the warehouse or 3PL. Retailer-required UCC-128 labels and ASNs print from the same order. |
| 4. Invoice | Invoices post from the shipment. Deposits taken at the booth through AIMS360 Pay apply against the invoice. Factored invoices go to the factor. |
| 5. EDI, when the retailer requires it | If the account you opened is a department store or chain, the reorders come as an EDI 850, and AIMS360 runs the 856 and 810 back natively. EDI for fashion brands covers the full loop. |
AIMS360 keeps one master stock record and one style record, and each B2B channel draws from it. That is the point of connecting the platform instead of running it as an island: the buyer sees the same open to sell your rep sees, and the order they place is the order your warehouse ships.
| Platform | What AIMS360 sends | What comes back | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| JOOR | Styles, images, price lists, linesheets, open to sell including WIP with delivery dates; negatives are sent so future availability stays honest | Orders, imported automatically | Native API built by AIMS360. Most brands publish inventory daily and again after a batch of booth orders. |
| NuORDER | Styles, images, prices; inventory updates in real time and lands within minutes; supports current stock, WIP and pre-book before production | Orders, imported as they are written | Native API connection, not a flat-file drop. |
| RepSpark | Styles, pricing, available to sell by date net of wholesale, EDI and DTC commitments | Orders, landing as AIMS360 sales orders with customer, terms and rep intact | Rep and dealer platform, common in golf, footwear and outdoor. |
| Brandboom | Styles with colors and sizes, images and descriptions, inventory synced in real time from the open to sell template; customer records sync both ways | Orders, imported automatically with duplicate prevention; SKU and customer mapping handled in AIMS360 | Line sheet and marketplace platform popular with boutique-focused brands. |
| Faire | Styles and availability | Orders from independent retailers | Marketplace. Faire finds you accounts and holds the relationship; the ERP holds the stock. |
| Shopify B2B | Sellable inventory after wholesale, EDI and marketplace commitments are subtracted | B2B orders placed on your Shopify storefront | Shopify is one channel, not the container for the others. |
| WebLink (your own portal) | Your line, your price sheets, your accounts | Buyer orders, reviewed then imported | AIMS360's buyer-facing portal. Nobody takes a share of the order. |
| RemoteLink (rep iPad) | Linesheets, customer pricing, open to sell | Orders, arriving as imported | AIMS360's rep-facing tool for booths, showrooms and the road. |
Which one should a brand pick? That depends on who buys from you, and the wholesale B2B platforms guide works through it platform by platform, with the pricing each publishes.
FashionGo and Le New Black are also listed as B2B platform connections on the pricing page. Platform connections are modular add-ons scoped per site; RemoteLink and WebLink are scoped per user. B2B wholesale order management itself is in every plan. Full list: omnichannel B2B integrations.
A pre-book order is for future delivery against goods still in production; an at-once order ships from stock on hand within days; a reorder is either, written after the show. Most trade show orders are pre-book for the coming season, with at-once written for immediates and cash and carry.
| Order type | Ships from | Typical show | What the ERP has to hold |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pre-book | Work in process, future delivery | MAGIC, Coterie, Atlanta and Dallas seasonal markets, SwimShow | WIP by delivery date, so open to sell for a March ship date is different from open to sell today |
| At-once (immediates) | Stock on hand | Cash and carry floors, Dallas and Atlanta immediates, OFFPRICE | Stock by warehouse, net of every channel's commitments |
| Reorder | Stock or next production run | Written after the show, in a portal or by the rep | Customer history, standing terms, size-run patterns |
Boutique and specialty stores write most of the orders at the Atlanta, Dallas and LA markets; department store and chain buyers concentrate at Coterie and MAGIC; showroom agents write for several lines at once in LA and New York.
Boutiques usually write one season of pre-book plus immediates. Department store and chain buyers arrive with an open-to-buy and a vendor manual, and expect EDI once the first order ships. Multi-brand online retailers and international distributors shop MAGIC, Coterie and SwimShow. Off-price buyers shop OFFPRICE for margin and will take the closeouts a brand would rather not show next to its main line.
In every case a buyer places the order, but a planning team decides whether the account reorders, based on sell-through and whether you shipped on time and complete. That second decision is made by your back office, not your booth.
When the accounts you want are already on JOOR, NuORDER or Faire and will order there without a booth; when you cannot ship pre-book on time; and when the brand is one season old with no reorder history to show. A booth is a fixed cost paid before the first order; the return comes from reorders two and three seasons later.
Booth costs vary by show, size and location on the floor, and organizers price them differently, so this guide does not publish a number. Ask the organizer for the current exhibitor kit and add travel, samples, staff time and the cost of the deposit you cannot recover if you cancel.
February 16 to 18, 2027 (Tuesday to Thursday) at the Las Vegas Convention Center. PROJECT, SOURCING at MAGIC and OFFPRICE share the dates and building. WWIN and Las Vegas Apparel run February 15 to 17 at The Expo at World Market Center. August 2027 dates were not posted as of September 4, 2026; the 2026 August show ran August 10 to 12. Exhibiting? See the MAGIC, Project and Coterie exhibiting guide.
Not posted as of September 4, 2026. The 2026 editions were February 24 to 26 and September 9 to 11 at the Javits Center, with MAGIC New York and SOURCING New York alongside. Expect the same late-February and mid-September weeks and confirm on coteriefashionevents.com. Coterie ran a JOOR digital extension in 2026, two weeks before and six weeks after the show.
Yes. MAGIC Nashville debuts May 11 to 12, 2027 at Music City Center, focused on women's modern sportswear, young contemporary and trend. It is a two-day regional edition for Southeast and Midwest boutique buyers who skip Las Vegas, and it sits between the February and August MAGIC weeks.
Minneapolis. Education day is August 18, 2027 and the exhibit hall runs August 19 to 20 at the Minneapolis Convention Center. The show left Salt Lake City in 2026, moved from June to August, and there is no longer a separate November winter show. Related: outdoor and sporting goods ERP.
February 2 to 5, April 13 to 16, June 8 to 11, August 3 to 6 and October 12 to 15, 2027, all at AmericasMart. Formal Markets run April 13 to 15 and August 2 to 6. The winter Atlanta Market (gift and home) is January 12 to 17. Source: atlanta-apparel.com.
January 19 to 22, March 16 to 19, June 15 to 18, August 17 to 20 and October 19 to 22, 2027 at Dallas Market Center. The Dallas Men's Show runs January 23 to 25 and July 24 to 26. KidsWorld, AETA and WESA run with the January and August markets. Dallas has published dates through 2028; January moves one week later in 2028.
January 11 to 13, March 8 to 10, August 2 to 4 and October 11 to 13, 2027 at the California Market Center, with June still to be announced. The New Mart runs the same weeks. LA is showroom-based, so buyers book appointments and reps usually write on an iPad with RemoteLink so the order lands in AIMS360 the same day.
SwimShow, June 5 to 7, 2027 in Miami Beach, is the category anchor and now carries a Curve intimates capsule. Surf Expo, January 6 to 8 in Orlando (again in September), covers resort, surf and coastal boutiques. Curve New York, February 7 to 9, reaches intimates and swim specialty stores. Swim is mostly pre-book, so see how the NuORDER integration handles orders against future inventory.
They do different jobs. The platform puts your line in front of buyers who already shop there and lets them order without your rep. The ERP holds stock, price lists, terms, allocation and invoicing. AIMS360 connects to JOOR, NuORDER, RepSpark, Brandboom, Faire and Shopify B2B. B2B platform connections are modular add-ons scoped per site; see pricing.
Yes, in RemoteLink. Order writing, line sheets, customer pricing and the last downloaded open to sell work offline. Stock refresh, order upload, new-style download and card deposits through AIMS360 Pay need a connection. On reconnect, orders reach AIMS360 with no separate import step. Accounts opened at the booth arrive on hold until credit approves them. RemoteLink runs on the AIMS360 cloud edition only.
