Bluehanded at Soul Salon Amsterdam sustainable brand trade show

Soul Salon is Amsterdam’s most progressive contemporary fashion trade show and presents more than 100 brands across the segments of authentic designer collections and lifestyle products. We kick started 2018 with the second edition of Soul Salon. The event was held at Gashouder Westergasfabriek.

The place where media, retailers, sustainable brands and labels met up to collaborate on ideas, share concepts and inspire one another. An opportunity to showcase that responsible manufactured products are also stylish, comfortable and original. Soul Salon is basically the sustainable fashion trade show of the Netherlands
