Bread & Butter Berlin by Ami Kealoha
More than your average ADD-inducing tradeshow, Bread & Butter, is an event bringing together denim makers, sports and street wear, intersections of art and fashion, and other cutting-edge fashion designers for three days in Berlin. On the heels of the successful Barcelona installment, the show runs July 22nd-24th and promises a full agenda of exhibits, music, artists, magazines, stores, and websites under the roof of a former Siemens cable factory on the island of Gartenfeld. Launched in 2001 as an "offshow" of selected brands and labels, it's now the premiere European tradeshow and seems to be hitting its peak.
