Shoppe Object, a prominent home and gift show from New York, has made its international debut in Paris. The event, held at the Parc des Expositions at Porte de Versailles, featured 80 selected brands,
with half being French and a notable 12% from the U.S. The show aims to inject fresh ideas into the Parisian design scene and plans a capsule event in March during Paris Fashion Week. This expansion reflects Shoppe Object's commitment to fostering community and creating business opportunities in the design industry.
Why It's Important?
The expansion of Shoppe Object into Paris signifies a strategic move to tap into the European market, particularly during the high-profile Paris Fashion Week. This not only enhances the visibility of participating brands but also strengthens international trade relations in the design sector. The event's success could lead to increased collaboration between U.S. and European designers, potentially boosting the global design economy and offering new opportunities for innovation and cultural exchange.
What's Next?
Shoppe Object plans to hold its next edition in Paris from September 5 to 7. The upcoming capsule event in March will feature collaborations with notable designers and brands, further integrating Shoppe Object into the European design calendar. This continued presence in Paris could solidify its role as a key player in the international design community, attracting more brands and buyers to future events.
