For months now due to the continuous development of the Covid-19 pandemic, the organisation of in-person physical trade fairs has not been possible except for virtual or web-based attendance. Now by and by, as more people are vaccinated and more markets are confident that the virus is under reasonable control, events are starting to return in the more traditional sense. That is, accepting in-person attendance.
Returning this week is Texworld Evolution Paris - Le Showroom textile trade fair being staged from July 5 to 9, 2021 in two exclusive locations in the heart of the French Capital: the Atelier Richelieu and, a few steps away, at 5 rue du Mail.
This sourcing itinerary for fabrics, garments and accessories will bring together an expanded offer of more than 7,500 samples selected by 160 companies from 15 countries who will be showcasing their Autumn-Winter 2022-23 collections, according to organisers at Messe Frankfurt France, featuring twice as many exhibitors and three times more products than the last February 2021 show.
