Textile innovations and high visitor attendance were the highlights of View Premium Selection which opened the Spring/Summer 2017 season for the fashion and apparel industry in Munich on December 9 and 10.

Leading suppliers in the Fabrics, Additionals and Denim & Sportswear segments, presented a selected portfolio of over 300 PreCollections altogether, met with renowned trade visitors from Germany and other European countries.

“Guests included not only the designers and buyers of high-end German RTW manufacturers but also international labels such as Jil Sander, Tommy Hilfiger, Calvin Klein and Lagerfeld,” a press release stated.

Carsten Fiebig, creative manager at Tommy Hilfiger Tailored said, 'To me View has now become the most important trade fair in Europe and the timing is perfect since I have to have 80 per cent of my collection ready by late January.”

“The portfolio here offers me the required choice and even though my focus is on the high-quality Italian suppliers, I use the opportunity to gather broad-based information,” Fiebig added.

Numerous international producers including 17 new entrants presented their seasonal developments and fabric innovations at View to the European fashion industry for the very first time.

“As a focused platform for early information and inspiration View has developed its own dynamism and an ever stronger attraction going beyond the German market,” the organisers added. (AR)
