Brooklyn Indie Market



Brooklyn Indie Market is a collective of fashion and product designers. We provide a connection between emerging designers and consumers, retail buyers, stylists, personal shoppers and the press.

Our designers converge under the red and white striped tent on Smith & Union Street, offering the public a first glimpse of the many new names in fashion and product design.

The {NewNew} is an eclectic group of independent handmade etsy artists, designers, makers and crafters in the Metro New York area who are devoted to fostering a creative and supportive environment among its members. The group encourages a spirit of camaraderie through craftsmanship and strives to help its members achieve success on both a personal and professional level. Members come from many different backgrounds and produce fine, handcrafted goods including clothing, home décor, jewelry, accessories, paper goods, bath and body products, toys, and baked goods. Everything is designed and produced locally by the talented artists of The {NewNew}.
