Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics – Spring Edition 2018 is all set to start. The fair, to be held during March 14-16, will host Intertextile Directions Trend Forum, developed by renowned trend experts from Tokyo, New York, Milan and Paris. The forum will present three trends for Spring/Summer 2019 with theme ‘Dialogue’: @ sense, # couture and e native.
Exhibitors’ fabrics will illustrate the colour, fabric and print styles of each trend. This season witnesses an enriched palette, encapsulating a refined and premium feel. Refreshing and vivid colours introduce a sense of vitality and elicit creativity.
The trend @ sense demonstrates an encounter with an unknown inner sense of beauty, while exploring maximised yet imperceptible appeal buried deep within the self. Natural tenderness comes face-to-face with dignified strength, paving the way for sensitively cool and ultimately soothing attitude. This all emphasises serene elegance in profundity, blooming anew with a placid allure.
The trend # couture means creation of a novel and chic couture, exhilarating freshness adorned with a sleek, sporty rhythm – revisiting the origin of elegance. Innocent charm joins with an energetic and playful mode for new revitalisation.
On the other hand, e native celebrates global connectivity, borderless inspiration and multi-art cultures, awash with vibrant, inter-stimulating emotions.
There will also be three Fabrics China Trend Forums which will illustrate the domestic trends for ladieswear and menswear, as well as a ‘Fashion Focus’ area. A number of seminars will also be held to give more insight into the S/S 19 trends.
Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics – Spring Edition 2018 is co-organised by Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd; the Sub-Council of Textile Industry, CCPIT; and the China Textile Information Centre.
