LUXURY 2014 To Honor, Inspire, And Entertain Attendees

Opening day is almost upon us and LUXURY 2014 is poised to impress this year. The show will feature the first annual LUXURY Retailer of the Year award, a re-imagined format for events that will include more networking, outdoor gatherings at the pool at the Four Seasons, Cirque Du Soleil’s Michael Jackson show, and our ever popular Dine-Out, including six restaurants at Mandalay Bay, never before offered. 
You’ll see more brand environments with Tacori joining Scott Kay in a ballroom which provides each brand the opportunity to entertain, sell, and network within their own intimate, exclusive environments.
“We are very excited about the LUXURY program this year,” said John Tierney, Industry Vice President for LUXURY and Swiss Watch. “Between the fresh new exhibitors at LUXURY and the Italian designers in Elite Enclave, to the always popular breakfast speaker program and plenty of networking opportunities (during show hours and after), there is so much to take advantage of.”
“We are also thrilled to initiate the longtime-coming Retailer of the Year Award for the LUXURY group,” John continued.
The LUXURY Retailer of the Year Award, in its inaugural year, will honor the luxury retailers who best innovate and sell both fashion and fine jewelry. The five finalists will be featured throughout the LUXURY show, encouraging retailers and exhibitors to cast their votes. The winner will be announced in a special presentation on Thursday, May 29.
What’s new by way of product? Retailers will enjoy a fresh crop of new talent within the walls of LUXURY and Elite Enclave this year. Joining the prestigious group for 2014 are Getana, Stroili Oro Group, Italian Design Srl, Krizanti, Andreoli, and Unrounds, to name a few. Below, some of the newcomers have shared previews of their collections, as well as thoughts on exhibiting for the first time.
Both retailers and exhibitors alike will delight in LUXURY’s speaker program. A highlight year after year, the speaker roster will be kicked off by veteran jewelry professional, Diane Warga-Arias. With her influential blog, The Jewelry Activist, Warga-Arias advocates for quality standards across fine jewelry categories and serves as an in-the-know jewelry champion.
Finally, the annual LUXURY Gala event will take its revelry up another notch this year, morphing from a sit down dinner to a cocktail party followed by an evening with the immortalized King of Pop. After libations and plentiful hors d’oeuvres, LUXURY All-Access badge holders will be given a ticket to Michael Jackson ONE by Cirque du Soleil—moonwalking and networking are sure to ensue.
LUXURY will take place May 27 through June 2 at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino.

First-time LUXURY exhibitors share their thoughts and collection previews:

Suzanne Mauduit, Italian-Design SrlItalian-Design creates new lines every six months. Normally, we present them in early spring at Basel World and late summer at the Hong Kong International Jewellery Show, ensuring our international clientele a platform to meet in Europe and the far East. This year we decided to come closer to the U.S. and South American markets, and exhibit at LUXURY Las Vegas too. Our goal for 2014/15 is to reach top retailers in order to create a wider network of POS in these geographic areas.
Italian Design is created by young Italians, Alberto and Silvia Prandoni, with the goal of making the essence of Italian products known around the world. They want to bring the excellence of Italian creativity together with the quest for unique jewels and the tradition of skilled jewelry manufacturing worldwide. Collections follow three main inspirational paths from which their name derives: Naturalia, Historica and Cosmo.
