Moda x Pure expands to Autumn Fair 2025

 

Following its highly anticipated and successful debut at Spring Fair 2025, Moda x Pure will make its return as a standout destination at Autumn Fair 2025, taking place from 7-10 September at the NEC Birmingham.

 

Bringing together four vibrant sectors, Womenswear, Clothing & Footwear, Fashion Accessories, and Jewellery & Watch, Moda x Pure is fast becoming the must-visit destination for fashion retailers and industry professionals. Building on the energy and innovation showcased at the destinations debut, the Autumn edition promises a fresh lineup of inspirational content, merchandising sessions, and a broad range of new and returning brands designed to help retailers stay ahead of the busiest season in retail including Lighthouse, Nomads, Nina Murati, Miss Sparrow, Gold Trip and many more.

 

With a focus on driving discovery and fostering connections, Moda x Pure at Autumn Fair will offer visitors everything from sustainable and ethically sourced pieces to statement collections and commercially driven ranges. The vibrant show floor will be complemented by Retail Corner, a dynamic space designed for independent retailers to connect, share insights, and explore emerging trends through engaging sessions and workshops. Featuring a charming stage and collaborative seating, it will host everything from merchandising masterclasses to peer networking and problem-solving events.

 

The Womenswear, Clothing & Footwear destination will welcome Lighthouse, with an exclusive preview of their SS26 collection. Combining style with practicality, the new range of weatherproof outerwear and complementary leisurewear is designed for everyday adventures.

 

Returning to Moda x Pure for the first time in several seasons, Nomads presents its latest collection, where ethical fashion meets timeless design. Crafted from sustainable fabrics, each piece reflects the brand’s commitment to fair trade principles and effortless, eco-conscious style.

 

Nina Murati is set to showcase its premium collection of timeless women's fashion, blending Italian-inspired designs with global influences. Crafted from natural fibres like cotton, linen, and silk, each piece offers flattering silhouettes and vibrant prints, ensuring exclusivity and quality for boutique retailers. Also joining the womenswear line-up is Decollage, Luella, Girl In Mind, Goose Island and many more. 

 

Fashion Accessories will feature Miss Sparrow with its vibrant collection of playful and stylish accessories, designed to add a touch of fun to everyday life. From whimsical socks to cozy slippers and scarves, each piece combines individuality with comfort, ensuring customers feel fabulous all year round.

 

Long & Son Trading Ltd returns to Moda x Pure, showcasing its extensive range of high-quality ladies' handbags, backpacks, evening clutches, and purses. With over a decade of experience, the UK-based wholesaler offers exclusive designs crafted in-house and through a network of 30 partner factories, ensuring both diversity and quality for boutique retailers across the UK and Europe. Visitors will also find accessories collections from Powder, Glen Appin of Scotland, Primehide and Goodlookers.

 

 

In the Jewellery & Watch destination Gold Trip, the demi-fine jewellery brand from London, will launch a new lifestyle accessories collection. Sitting alongside its beautiful, contemporary, design-led jewellery will be a collection of hair and lifestyle accessories that have been thoughtfully designed and packaged to cater to the gifting market. The brand was launched in 2021 and has been exhibiting consistently at Autumn Fair since its entry to wholesale in 2023.

 

Michelle Gay, Founder and Designer said, "We love exhibiting at Autumn Fair, the footfall and quality of visitors is great for us and we're proud to sit alongside lots of other amazing British brands. We're excited to not only be showing brand new collections of demi-fine jewellery, but to also be using the show to launch our new Lifestyle Collection. It's been timed perfectly in the run up to the festive gifting period and sits perfectly alongside our jewellery, following the ethos of contemporary design, great quality and thoughtfully packaged and priced."

 

Lucy Kemp Jewellery will showcase an exquisite collection of handcrafted sterling silver jewellery that seamlessly blends contemporary design with craftsmanship. Established in 2001 by Lucy Kemp, the brand has grown from a home-based studio to a thriving workshop and retail space, all while maintaining its commitment to quality and sustainability. Also joining the Jewellery and Watch line-up will be Bill Skinner, Ayala Bar, Peace of Mind, Anabella Moore, Suzie Blue and more.

 

Soraya Gadelrab, Event Director at Autumn Fair said, “Moda x Pure made a strong impression at Spring Fair, and we are delighted to bring this dynamic fashion destination to Autumn Fair this September. The response from buyers and brands has been overwhelmingly positive, confirming Moda x Pure as an essential part of the UK fashion trade calendar. Our goal is to continue offering an inspiring space where innovation, creativity, and commerce come together under one roof.”

 

Autumn Fair, the UK’s largest B2B retail trade show for Home, Gift & Fashion of the season, returns to the NEC Birmingham from 7–10 September 2025, bringing together over 800 leading brands and 12,000+ retail buyers for four days of high-impact product discovery ahead of the busiest season in retail.
