Interfilière Lyon will be held in France from July 9 to 11, 2016. This is a trade fair for lingerie and swimwear materials and accessories. Around 280 exhibitors, including 40 new exhibiting companies are expected at the show.
The trade show will bring together active wear leaders and organise forums and conferences with in-depth reports on advances in the industry. The exhibition will be divided into seven sectors which include: lace, embroidery, fabrics (knits, woven, print and textile finishing), accessories (hooks, elastic tapes, buttons, and more), textile designers and trends agencies, fibers, and sourcing.
The ‘Momenti di Passione’ section event will focus on preview of summer 2018 trends. This dedicated swimwear, sportswear and active wear space is designed to highlight new products and provide a forward-looking overview of these markets. There will be a presentation of the base layer concept. The base layer concept is a driver for the active wear lingerie market. Base layer apparel with its important thermal qualities first appeared in the ski sector and is now a key part of active wear wardrobes.
The future of the well-being and fitness market will be discussed. Which functions should material manufacturers prioritize? Which developments should fiber specialists research?
