BLUEPRINT is a one-stop fashion trade gateway for East-West exchange, created to present up-and-coming International and Asian designers. It uniquely specializes in launching Pre-Spring collections and curates fresh and forward menswear, womenswear and accessories including jewelry, shoes and bags from emerging designers destined for international markets.

BLUEPRINT started as a catwalk showcase to kickstart the retail careers of young Singaporean and Asian design talents in 2004. It has since evolved into a trade platform that catapults emerging talents to international prominence through unprecedented media interest leading to burgeoning trade opportunities. The first BLUEPRINT trade show in 2010 saw 56 exhibiting designers being presented to more than 120 buyers including 73 hosted buyers from 43 stores in 17 countries. In 2011, the BLUEPRINT trade show returned with a more impressive showing: 105 rising fashion stars from 15 countries and 253 international and regional buyers.

Visitors can also look forward to the last two days of BLUEPRINT, when the trade venue is transformed into a consumer shopping extravaganza named BLUEPRINT Emporium, offering exclusive sales of seasonal wares and one-off samples from Blueprint exhibitors and other suppliers. New-to-Emporium exhibitors include itinerant pop-up shop operators and specialists in the art of offering limited editions, everything handcrafted as well as lifestyle designer items from around the world for men, women and children.
