Top Drawer will be back as a live event this September, with the A/W edition taking place from September 12-14 at Olympia.
Organisers Clarion Events extensively surveyed its community of leading retail buyers and interior designers, with 82% confirming that they intend to attend.
“Over the past 12 months, we remained committed to providing our network of buyers and brands with opportunities to connect, be inspired, and trade,” commented portfolio director Zoë Bonser.
“We saw some amazing success stories through our digital iterations of the show, however, for the full experience, we know just how important it is for buyers to see, try and feel products in person too. In terms of sourcing, networking and discovery, there’s a lot of exciting work happening behind the scenes to revolutionise these experiences for our audience, and we can’t wait for our community to be reunited for this exhilarating new chapter for Top Drawer and retail.”
She added: “We will continue to work in partnership with the Association of Events Organisers (the AEO), who is liaising directly with the government, to ensure the safest and most successful event for our community.”
The A/W21 edition of Top Drawer will include the full range of show sectors across gifting, interiors, greetings & stationery, fashion, children’s products, handmade craft, and giftable food & drink.
Among the gift and home suppliers who will be exhibiting are Hot Tomato, Caroline Gardner, Wild & Wolf, Ian Snow, St Eval, Coach House, Half Moon Bay, Repeat Repeat and One Hundred Stars.
