Designers & Agents (D&A), is the leading women’s, independent trade event that redefined the modern tradeshow experience through its highly curated presentations in New York and Los Angeles. For over 25 years D&A has been known for its keen eye and curated approach. D&A showcases a globally sourced community of over 300 innovative brands in women’s ready-to-wear, accessories, and lifestyle.

At the heart of D&A is the commitment to showcase thoughtful, design-led collections possessing originality, creative integrity, and exceptional quality. Each brand is selected through a rigorous screening process, resulting in a distinctive, well-edited mix that offers a unique perspective.

More than a marketplace, D&A is a destination for discovery—where retailers come to find standout collections that will set their stores apart from the status quo. The event fosters meaningful connections between designers and buyers, rooted in mutual respect and shared values. It’s a community where the dialogue between creativity and commerce is the driving force.
