L.A. Majors Market Gets Off to a Brisk Start

The April 12-14 run of the Los Angeles Majors Market got off to a brisk start at the California Market Center, where representatives from major retailers—including department stores and chains—turned out to shop the the CMC's showrooms.

Buyers got an early start on Monday morning with a pair of trend forecasts hosted by two local buying offices. Los Angeles-based Directives West covered key trends for the contemporary, juniors and girls' markets in its runway show. And the Barbara Fields Buying Office, also based in Los Angeles, covered Back-to-School trends for juniors in its trend presentation.
