Short-term orders and last-minute series were the highlights of Tissu Premier Collections, although exhibitors also offered summer 2015 products to give buyers ample time to finetune or rework next season’s collections.

The May 2014 show saw a greater willingness among its exhibitors to meet new market demands. Exhibitors have noticed a rise in split orders with faster turnarounds. They have had to become extremely flexible and responsive, and be able to handle extra-short-term orders, with lower minimum orders, colours on demand, near-instant product exchanges and alterations, and facilitated sampling and cross-section orders.

Exhibitors need to be more available and closer to the end market, accept split orders, become more exclusive on small orders, and be able to respond to orders made more regularly and with less lead time.Most of the exhibitors confirmed their willingness to adapt.

They are exploring new types of partnerships with buyers, but always with the intention of offering the end consumer on-trend products with an optimal fashion/price balance. In this respect, Tissu Premier Collections May 2014 was highly successful: stylists, product managers, company and sales managers are constantly reflecting and adapting to keep pace with this nonstop fashion market, which, as we speak, is rewriting the rules of the fashion industry.
