Inside The Folklore Showroom 

“Our platform was not set up to eliminate the need for human and physical interaction, rather it was set up to streamline these interactions and make the discovery and transaction part of wholesale buying simpler and quicker,” says The Folklore’s Founder and CEO Amira Rasool. “We invite every opportunity to make the wholesale experience the best it can be for all of our users, and we find the in-person showrooms we host benefit both our brand and retail partners.”

The Folklore Showroom is by appointment only and it is open to buyers, stylists and media. To make an appointment or for more information, please contact events@thefolklore.com.
