This autumn’s Textile Forum, running from 10-11 October 2018 at One Marylebone, London, will be showcasing its broadest range of luxury fabrics to date, with many exhibitors emphasising not just the quality of their fabrics, but also their provenance.
“Today’s fabric buyers are as keen to know the story behind the fabrics they have chosen as they are to ensure that the designs are on trend; provenance is really important these days as designers are looking to ‘connect’ with their suppliers,” explains Amy Packham, Textile Forum’s event director. “At this October’s show we have many exhibitors who have a long history of producing the finest, specialist fabrics, constantly improving their quality and investing in new developments to meet today’s designers’ exacting specifications.”

First-time exhibitor AnBella Designs, part of Antex Broderie, specialists in Schiffli machine embroidery, will be showcasing a low minimum order range of limited edition designs. Also new to the show is Dentelles Méry, producers of Calais lace using traditional leavers lace machines. Other new exhibitors include Higgs & Higgs, which brings European made cotton prints and jerseys, Jozwiak with wool and wool blend fabrics designed for classic menswear and corporatewear and Weavabel with its range of handtags, labels, leather patches and packaging.
Textile Forum is the luxury fashion fabric fair for designers of menswear, womenswear, bridalwear, special occasionwear, lingerie, childrenswear and accessories looking to source the very best collections of fabrics and accessories available with small minimums. Textile Forum is open 10am to 6pm.
