Upbeat Hong Kong Furry Ideas “Connect” Global Buyers at Fur Gala 2010

Reputed as the most prestigious event for the global fur trade, the Hong Kong International Fur & Fashion Fair (February 25-28) converges modish apparel, fancy material as well as trendy accessories all under one roof at the HKCEC once a year; and the annual Gala evening is the major highlight which offers directional clues for upbeat furry thoughts.
10 YEARS INFUR, So in… HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Renewed, lavish, different and more exciting than ever! This year INFUR is celebrating its tenth anniversary and is being transformed!

It won’t be changing its direction; it will however be changing its routes, making them greater in number and even more interesting.
The Première Vision Pluriel shows, focusing on creativity, continue their upward curve
With local and high speed trains delayed and out of service for several hours Wednesday, highways blocked by ice and snow in various European countries and airports in New York closed, there appeared to be a collusion of technological and meteorological forces last week. And yet, in spite of this accumulation of handicaps, what emerges above all from the February 2010 edition is the excellent visitor results, both in quality and quantity. One can only imagine what they would have been without the travel disruptions! To compensate for the delayed arrival of buyers Wednesday, the shows extended their opening hours that day.
