I have decided to split my market report in two parts because the Evolution and Curve NY show, although similar in their color/ print/ and shape reveal, had two very different vibes. To be perfectly honest, timing required that I debrief from the smaller exposition first. Evolution was a limited array of boutique/ luxury brands portrayed in an intimate space.
