Inspiration to Go! GDS has the trends for Spring and Summer

GDS is an important information and ordering point for the footwear and leather product industries worldwide. Over 25,000 trade visitors from some 40+ nations are expected to come to Düsseldorf to view the latest styles and trends on display.

And what's more: GDS offers a fast orientation, everything within easy reach and, above all, inspiration for your business development. The current collections are concentrated in separate themed areas, providing a fast track to the footwear fashions that fit your target group.

But shoes are seldom found alone - often they are presented together with matching clothes and the right accessories. Therefore, in the fashion shows at GDS, shoes can be seen as part of complete outfits. Fashion shows will take place several times a day, providing everyone with the most important information for the new season.
