Dallas Men’s Show To Be Reimagined for January 2025: Largest Show in History to Expand into Market Hall
DALLAS – July
24, 2024 – The Dallas Men’s Show, the fastest growing men’s trade event in the
U.S., announced today that its January 2025 show will be reimagined as the
largest in history and is expanding its temporary exhibits into a 60,000 square
foot hall in the Market Hall building.
For the January 25-27, 2025 event, permanent showrooms will remain open on multiple floors of the World Trade Center building next door, with shuttles providing continuous service between the venues as well as pedestrian access via a crosswalk between buildings.
The Dallas Men’s Show has tripled in size over the last five years and for January 2025 will include hundreds of brands. The show has long presented leading brands in classic suiting, business, and casual wear. Recent additions to the show, which will expand for January, include contemporary, outdoor lifestyle, sportswear, and men’s gifts. The result is the only show in North America presenting a complete lifestyle assortment in one trade event.
“The Dallas momentum continues as we accelerate our plans to reimagine and expand the Men’s Show to reach more top buyers,” said Cindy Morris, president and CEO of Dallas Market Center. “No other trade event presents a single marketplace with the lifestyle categories retailers are demanding. We just celebrated the 40th anniversary of men’s markets in Dallas, so it’s timely that we should reimagine our Men’s Show to serve buyers for the next 40 years.”
Along with an expanding number of exhibiting brands, the show has expanded its attendance to welcome buyers from coast to coast representing top menswear retailers. From Naples, Florida to Minneapolis, Minnesota to Seattle, Washington, more top men’s retailers are choosing the Dallas Men’s Show because of its selection, convenience, hospitality, and commitment to supporting independent retail.
The reimagined January show will feature a new venue for temporary exhibits, the mid-century designed Market Hall. Flooded with natural light, a 60,000 square foot hall will include a dramatically expanded show floor featuring best-selling and trending brands across multiple categories. Brands that participated in the most recent Dallas Men’s Show include Lacoste, Mizzen + Main, Harlestons, 34 Heritage, Billy Reid, Lubiam, Mountain Khakis, Faherty, Duck Camp, Greyson, Collars & Co., Zanella, PT Torino, St. Croix, as well as footwear and accessories from Filson, Goorin Bros., Smathers & Branson, and Allen Edmonds, among others.
The Market Hall show floor will also include hospitality stations, comfortable seating areas, WiFi, and the fashion show stage and runway for the iconic Men’s Show Party.
Permanent men’s showrooms located on the 7th, 13th, 14th, and 15th floors of the World Trade Center will continue to present brands including Barbour, Johnnie-O, Tommy Bahama, Peerless, Hagen, Samuelsohn, Jack Victor, True Grit, Horn Legend, Southern Marsh, Mauritius, and dozens of others.
The dates of the January 2025 show are timed to be adjacent to other Dallas fashion markets, creating the opportunity for buyers to shop additional categories and for exhibitors to connect with more new accounts. The Women’s Apparel & Accessories Market and KidsWorld take place January 21-24; WESA’s International Western/English Apparel & Equipment Market is January 22-25; and the AETA International Trade Show for the business of English riding and lifestyle takes place January 22-25. These events take place in the World Trade Center.
