Knitwear Solutions and Heritage installation focus on unique Creativity

Knitwear Solutions 
Knitwear Solutions presented - in this 4th edition at Premiere Vision Pluriel in February - a range of knitters from Europe, notably, Italy, Portugal, Bulgaria and Turkey, as well as knitters from Asia - Japan, China and Hong Kong. 
The Europeans proposed collections to demonstrate creativity, quality and finishings for the high-end and luxury markets, Asian companies displayed the traditional know-how in varied technical and fancy developments that the region is famous for.
While European spinners - particularly Bulgaria and Italy - offered cutting-edge developments in noble, natural or artificial fibres, whether single or blended, Asian exhibitors shone as an important source of noble fibres such as cashmere and wools.

A key focus this season at Premiere Vision in the Knitwear Solutions area was the Futuristic Heritage
installation of specially-selected unique knitwear designs to showcase the ingenuity and innovative designs by some of Europe's great designers - provided much prove that notions of heritage shape our past while redefine the DNA of design ideas.  This demonstrated that Heritage continues to be an important word in the world of fashion and design.

This installation showcasing some 20 works was a major focus at the Knitwear Solutions area during the Premiere Vision trade fair in Paris in February this year.  It was organised by Federico Poletti in collaboration with the international centre for Italian fashion documentation, Archivio Modateca Deanna, and Ffrancesca Fornasari.
