Cotton Incorporated will present Cotton Incorporated's Apparel Trend Forecast Spring/Summer 2009 as part of the special educational conference for sewn product industry members during the April 8-10, 2008 edition of Material World Miami Beach, held at the Miami Beach Convention Center. Scheduled for Tuesday, April 8 from 2:00 – 3:00 p.m., the program will be led by Jenna Caccavo, Cotton Incorporated's Product Trend Analyst.

Caccavo's presentation identifies integrative essence as the common thread through each of the Spring/Summer 2009 trends. Caccavo will introduce five color stories predicted to influence both the apparel and home markets in the coming year: Frequency, Intuitive Wisdom, Tunnel Vision, Synectics and Blurred Existence.

Caccavo's presentation rests on the notion that the joining of apparel and home shows the integrative nature society is taking. Cotton Incorporated has added three home colors to each palette, adding weight and structure for the home market.

“We're delighted to add Cotton Incorporated's Apparel Trend Forecast for Spring/Summer 2009 to our line-up,” says Betty Webb, show director, Material World.

“Industry visitors will have a chance to see the latest offerings from suppliers, attend forecasting programs like this one and get an inside look at the most up-to-date apparel colors, trends, textures and fabrics.”

In addition to its Spring/Summer 2009 trend forecast, Cotton Incorporated technical experts will be available to explain the company's latest textile technologies that improve cotton's natural performance properties, as well as provide assistance in sourcing cotton for manufacturing needs.

“The application of new technologies to cotton is a major activity of Cotton Incorporated in improving cotton's market share and increasing profitability throughout the supply chain,” says Mike Tyndall, Managing Director Product Development & Implementation, Cotton Incorporated.

“As cotton is a highly technical fiber, products made from cotton can offer the consumer a wide range of functional properties. Material World provides the perfect venue for Cotton Incorporated to feature such developments.”
