10-07-08 New Line "Modage", Vintage Inspired Scarves

Hi, Everyone-

I'm sorry that I haven't updated my blog while.
So much things going on like this economy.

Funtrap Showroom has been doing great with ScoLar and Mon Peche Mignon!
Our POOL TRADE SHOW in Las Vegas was successful, and now we start shipping new HOLIDAY collections to customers.

Regarding holiday, we just picked up new collection called "Modage". We displayed with ScoLar and Mon Peche Mignon during POOL TRADE SHOW, and had a great reaction from customers.

This scarves and accessories line is made in Los Angeles, and very unique and artistic collection.

Please contact us if you are interested in having the line sheet.
Retailers! All pieces will be delivered just before holiday season.
Also we have a promo for new early bird! (10% off!)

See some pictures above.

Will update our store information about ScoLar and Mon Peche Mignon soon :)

XOXO

Funtrap - YUKIE

08-20-08 ScoLar & Mon-Peche-Mignon : It's Vegas time

Hello, Everyone-
This is YUKIE of Funtrap.

We did our seasonal photo shoots in LA for ScoLar and Mon-Peche-Mignon.
Both lines are from Japan, but they look totally trendy, don't they?

Our ScoLar model is Jennifer. She's young and cut model.
Our Mon-Peche-Mignon model is our frequent model, Clara! She did our first shooting for both lines, and this time she looks really gorgeous!

I can say, ScoLar is the collection to make you feel really fun and happy, on the other hand Mon-Peche is making you much more trendy and sexy.

Upcoming Las Vegas show, we'll be back POOL TRADE.
Our booth# is 408.

Our crew will be Yukie, Kumi, Nikki and Grace!

People who won't be able to attend this POOL TRADE, don't hesitate to contact me!

Meryl micro fibres for function and lycra for Suportive fit.

The Last Minuite, I decided to work with a line, Tyoga, from this market.

Her Holiday collection is beautiful!

Tyoga www.tyogawear.com

Emphasizing comfort, fit, and elegant simplicity through the use of fabrics that are sueded to be super-soft, and cut in a sophisticated color palate, this beautiful yoga/lifestyle collection is made to fit, and not grab the body.
