Coquette Introduces New York to 2010 Masquerade Line

Christmas might not have passed yet, but despite the chilly temperatures and decorated trees New York City was host to one of the country's most important Halloween shows.

Running from December 7th to 10th, the 5th annual International Halloween Show (IHS) was held at the Halloween Tower at 1115 Broadway in New York City. Run by the Halloween Industry Association (HIA), the show focused on the second largest commercial holiday in the United States, and allowed consumers to see the latest trends of the upcoming season whether it was costumes or novelties.

Coquette International Inc attended the Halloween show ready to display some of their newest creations in the 2010 Masquerade line. Not available in stores until June 2010, the IHS gave attendees a sneak peek of the line which includes a lumber jack, matador and even a ring master.

"Halloween is always one of our biggest and busiest seasons," says Marcus Horea, VP of sales and marketing for Coquette, "we like to attend these types of shows to display our up coming costumes and get feedback from the people who will be purchasing them."

Coquette had their line on display in a private showroom located at 366 5th Ave suite 1117, between 34th and 35th street. Dave George, national sales manager for Coquette, was on hand to answer any questions about the line and talk about the upcoming trends for the next Halloween season.

Coquette International Inc. is preparing to launch their 2010 Penthouse Lingerie Line on November 1st 2009. While their previous Penthouse Collections: Sweet Pet, Naughty Pet and Lingerie Classics remain available, they have chosen to expand the Sexy Pet and Wild Pet Collections due to high demand. A total of ten different outfits have been added and were on display recently at the International Lingerie Show (ILS) in Las Vegas, NV.

The 2010 Sexy Pet Collection has added five new & invigorating styles which incorporate the same fun cherry print fabric. “Burlesque ruffle panties are extremely trendy right now, so we added the playful cherry print to compliment the vibrant red ruffles," Catherine Horea, Executive VP of Coquette stated. The Sexy Pet ruffle booty shorts can be worn with any garment in this collection. "The best part about Penthouse Lingerie is that each garment can be mixed and matched within the collections. This allows you to create your own unique styles while remaining budget friendly," Horea added.

The highlights of the 2010 Wild Pet Collection are the leopard print and wetlook padded underwire bra with zipper detailing on the cups, along with matching skirt featuring front zipper detailing (style P4463). "The zippers really add the extra edge to the Wild Pet collection," Horea commented, "It also allows you to reveal as much as you like without taking the garment off!" The Wild Pet Collection has also introduced a sexy bustier, featuring gathered wetlook trim and satin ribbon lace-up sides.

Penthouse Lingerie was designed to add a fun and flirty new flair to traditional lingerie, and has a total of five collections: Lingerie Classics, Sweet Pet, Naughty Pet, Sexy Pet and Wild Pet.
