A wide range of fashion textiles, accessories, print studios and vintage garments focusing on autumn/winter 2018 pre-collections will be featured at the London Textile Fair, to be held during July 19-20, 2017. The show will have a hall dedicated to fashion textiles accommodating about 50 new exhibitors. The fair was for the first time organised in 2008.
“2017 results are above expectations. All our shows are fully booked, and after the successful launch of the Home and Technical textile hall within Texfusion last year, we have introduced a new segment for garment manufacturers in March, which has immediately received a positive response from British buyers,” says John Kelley, show organiser and Textile Events owner.
Textile Events will launch a new show in New York in August 2017: The Print + Design Fair - New York Edition, dedicated to the best British and European Print Studios.
The industry professionals who come to TLTF represent almost every fashion brand and designer within the UK - from high-street chains to independent women, men and children clothing retailers – such as TopShop, John Lewis, Dorothy Perkins, Tesco, Debenhams, Ted Backer, Missguided, All Saints, Coast, Marks&Spencer, Accessorize, River Island and many more.
“TLTF is such a great place to find new contacts and showcase the newest collections. The best part of the fair is that it has a nice welcoming atmosphere,” Ieva Kuojaite, Bruberi Design Oy (UK), exhibitor TLTF (print studio) says.
“Definitely the show to be at if you want to sell your fabrics among the top UK brands,”
Gianni Colombo, Dragoni S.p.A (Italy), another exhibitor TLTF (textiles), says.
The accessories and textiles halls have together more than 90 per cent of the total exhibiting space and, due to the increasing interest from new companies, the organisers have opened a new room which accommodates 50 new fabric manufacturers. The July 2017 edition will have a wide selection of womenswear, menswear, childrenswear fabrics and accessories with an increasing number of technical textiles manufactures.
The accessories hall has grown exponentially over the last five editions, showcasing an impressively diverse range of products from the best European manufacturers. The number of exhibitors has exceeded expectation, with about 30 per cent new companies registered for July.
The print design and vintage garments hall attracts the leading UK and international studios, with many studios exhibiting also at The London Print Design Fair which takes place in March and October. (SV)
