An Inclusive + Sustainable DESIGNER COLLECTIVE

FEATURED AT MELANGE DE BLANC

October 14-16, 2025 | 417 Fifth Avenue

This October, The Fringe Collective is joining Mélange de Blanc for a groundbreaking collaboration poised to reshape the future of THE bridal market.

This partnership merges the luxury, high-touch experience of Mélange de Blanc with the bold, inclusive, and sustainability-driven ethos of The Fringe Collective, creating an unprecedented offering for buyers and designers.

The Fringe Lounge will be housed within Mélange de Blanc’s iconic showrooms at 417 Fifth Avenue, a destination known for high fashion. Designed as an open-concept, high-visibility showroom, the Lounge highlights emerging designers while honoring the same standard of excellence that has defined both platforms.

With shared amenities, premium foot traffic, and a welcoming aesthetic, it will be a space of discovery and connection where responsible and sustainable practices are honored—and where designers shaping the future of bridal fashion are brought to the forefront.
