ABOUT

Emblem Showroom was created by founder of forward-thinking EM & Co boutique to help promote emerging and global designers outside the boutique. 

Emblem Showroom provides designers and new brands with all the support they need to build their brand and expand their sales in the U.S. Market: competitive research, merchandising and brand development, sales and trade show representation, PR services, brand communication, including look-book and product shoots, fashion show production, and social media support.

We are passionate about building and promoting purpose-driven brands whose style inspires and endures, and whose innovative designs present a fresh take on style and quality, to bring unique and valuable offerings to U.S. consumers.

We combine our passion for excellence with the most effective strategies to help our clients reach their target. We help our clients set goals and implement strategies to achieve them.

As of March 2021, Emblem Showroom’s efforts will be focused solely on sustainable and ethical brands, as part of our larger mission to support a more eco-conscious lifestyle.  From its inception, in the early 2000’s, EM & Co has supported ethically-made and eco-conscious brands, including Prairie Underground, Ecoskin, Linda Loudermilk, Sworn Virgins, Micha Designs, Bettina Duncan and its own in-house upcycled line featuring upcycled collections and design collaborations with local talent.
