AVN Media Network Announces Nominees for 2018 ‘O’ Awards

CHATSWORTH, Calif.—The nominees for the 2018 “O” Awards—the awards show that recognizes the best products, lingerie collections and more—have been selected.  The winners will be announced during the ninth annual ceremony, which takes place in January during the AVN Novelty Expo at Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Las Vegas. ANE is slated for Jan. 24-26. Each year, nominees in a dozen categories are named as the best products from leading and cutting-edge manufacturers. “This proved to be one of the most difficult years for the nominations committee, simply because of the sheer number of quality products that were produced,” said Sherri L. Shaulis, senior editor of pleasure products for AVN. “There has been so much innovation, attention to detail and risk-taking in the industry lately, and it’s all resulted in some of the best products we’ve seen since the ‘O’ Awards started. Everyone nominated this year should be proud of their work and know that they are the leaders who will continue to make this industry grow and thrive.” The “O” Awards are open to all trade attendees of the AVN Novelty Expo.
