Messe Frankfurt France have cancelled their February 2021 textile trade shows in their normal format, but instead they are staging an alternative solution with a new event from February 1 to 5 at the Atelier Richelieu, in the heart of Paris.
Texworld Evolution Paris - Le Showroom which opens on February 2 is set to allow buyers and designers to explore offers from a selected number of exhibitors from the sister events of Apparel Sourcing, Avantex, Leatherworld and Texworld Paris.
Upon invitation at the time slot of their choice, visitors can have direct access, in optimal conditions of comfort and security, to the textile and clothing collections arranged around two main areas:
• A Trend Forum imagined by the artistic directors of Texworld Evolution Paris, Louis Gérin and Grégory Lamaud, offering to a creative inspiration book elaborated around a selection of textile and clothing samples that will become the fashion of spring-summer 2022.
• A Library is to unveil, by categories, a precise selection of several thousands of fabrics samples and finished goods to be discovered in specially designed areas that will facilitate the professionals' journey.
Upon arrival at the showroom, buyers are provided with a digital tool specifically developed to facilitate direct contact with manufacturers for expressing interest, requesting samples or quotations. Le Showroom is therefore an innovative response to ensure that this essential connection between the international garment industry and textile and clothing buyers is maintained, and thus allow them to make foreward preparations for the July 2021 trade shows.
“Le Showroom is the first international professional textile event to be held in Paris within a year and offers a new way of organizing fashion sourcing," explains Frédéric Bougeard, President of Messe Frankfurt France.
For interested parties not able to physically visit Le Showroom, all participating exhibitors will be added to their digital platform at the end of February. The registration to the platform is fast and free, and will give an all-year-round access!
Meanwhile the international Première Vision Paris show for all sectors of the textile and materials industry will be holding a digital show for its February edition, presaging the continued health constraints on a global scale.
The PV Paris digital show will run from February 15 to 19, with the introduction of new services for the industry thus refleting the marked acceleration of the group's digitization. Première Vision will also be bringing online its new website, to be rolled out in several stages over the coming year, which will bring together all its trade shows and its own Marketplace platform.
Throughout the last few months, Première Vision has been engaged in supporting the international fashion industry as it faces the difficult challenges posed by the Covid-19 health crisis, introducing new and innovative e-commerce features to its Marketplace, and speeding the development of its digital system.
