THERE IS MOVEMENT IN HALLS 5 AND 6 Yarns move closer to knitters. Now, Première Vision Yarns and Knitwear Solutions are found in the NORTH OF HALL 6, near Première Vision Manufacturing, to foster synergies between visits tied to product development and those related to production buys. The new Yarns & Knitwear Forum opens fashion information for these industries to a diversity of applications around using yarns in fabrics, circular knits and flatbed knits. In HALL 6, Upper Jeanswear relocates to the west
as do Premium Relax and Shirting, while Tech, for technical fabrics, has been enlarged and relocated in the centre of the hall. The Tech Focus Forum has undergone changes as well, and invites in Première Vision Accessories and its more high-tech samples. All these changes have been designed with the same goal in mind: to make both the visits of the buyers and the work of the exhibitors more efficient and productive.

GRAPHIC INTERLOCKINGS The graphic abyss and mesmerizing repetitions reminiscent of Escher (of those black-and-white stairs endlessly devolving into infinite structures) is one of the season’s real curiosities. Selecta Como (Fabrics, 5D18-5E17) reveals a fluid silk with a ‘bandana’ visual worked in a very closely-set all over, creating a nesting of patterns in which can be found the hypnotic gaze of an owl. On the leather side of things, Concheria Trend (Leather, 3F66) proposes an obsessive and deceptively 3D honeycomb. Graphic tessellations are simply amazing at WSG USA (Accessories, 4C49-4D50), as seen in their beetle coat of arms, where a traditional embroidery is layered over a metal line tracing a digital network over the insect’s morphology. The designer Marie Wagner (Designs, 5U85), methodically superimposes and shifts the layers of a rigorous geometry with an imperceptibly blurry line, creating fascinating frames within frames, and stories within stories.

WATER? IS IT POSSIBLE FOR A WEAVER, A SPINNER OR AN ACCESSORY MANUFACTURER TO TAKE CARE OF IT OVER THE LONG TERM? It all depends on the willingness and choices made by each company.

AUTUMN WINTER 17-18
A FEW STEPS AWAY To escape normalcy and delight in the slightly offbeat, designers traced out slightly wacky designs: figurative all-overs infused with a Pop-style, unsettling humour. In accessories, interferences between minimalism and opulence shake up aesthetic lines, redefining the harmony between the precious and the everyday. In textiles, when things look simple, keep alert: up close, you can discover a wealth of ornamentation processes, and semi-plains resulting from a pileup of jacquards, dyed yarns, prints and embroidery. At the tanners, some skins are truly intriguing, they appear to be derived from animals with a decidedly unfamiliar DNA. Keep a lookout this season is full of surprises!

03 AN ASSUMED SHINE Whether the shine of winter 17-18 plays on dazzle loudly and strongly, or in a more muted vein, it always does so gaily. Far removed from lost or out-dated splendour, it displays both a technical and a precious side. It infuses accessories with contemporary fantasy, with shot effects and micro-sequinned lacquered effects. At tanners, varnishes cheerfully permeate marked grains and incisings. In textiles, cottons are adorned with noble reflections, shirtings and suitings sparkle, laces and silks evoke molten metal.
Teseo (Fabrics, 5H17)
04 A WARM LIGHTNESS Winter is an invitation to snuggle up in warm and airy fabrics. Weightless fabrics with structured appearances, cashmere foams, mists of wool, downy fringes, chenille yarns mixed with wool in trimmings or vaporous fleeces at the furriers - it’s all about wrapping up in warmth. Everything is deceptively heavy and really cosy.

02 A PROTECTIVE FINENESS It’s as if fabric were looking to be a substitute for skin. Synthetic and artificial fibres team closely with stretch, for knits and silkies with epidermal flexibility. Leathers become more refined, and are softened to the maximum. Embroidered trims are
impregnated with latex handles, and silicone yarns slip into ribbons, for smooth strength.
05 A JOYFUL EXCESS We’re seeing big in patterns. At all the decoration specialists, size is testing the limits. Whether placed on base fabrics, in huge flowers or outscale geometry, fantasy is “big”. Yarns also play on macro-counts, for woollens with a fuller thickness. An XXL volume right up into accessories, with large embossed labels and giant buttons and zips.

01 A SEDUCTIVE PERFECTIONISM This season there’s a search for the absolute in terms of low-key looks. The ultimate goal is to find what’s different inside the invisible. Added-value moves inside, and plains express themselves by the depth of their handles. Surfaces look smoothly perfect, in both leather and fabrics. Accessories are hidden, with invisible zips and snaps. Textile patterns are organised into obsessive, overly orderly structures.

MANY CLIENTS LIKE PRECIOUS AND SHINY ARTICLES THAT PLAY ON SHADOW AND LIGHT. Our offer in this area is thus increasing. We interpreted shine across a range of proposals: shiny leathers, materials with a mirror effect, Swarovski elements, metallic screen printing, Lurex yarn, etc., for the look of little gleaming effects that are always quite flashy.»

THIS SEASON, THE COUTURE HEART OF FABRICS IS SOMEWHAT FANTASTICAL AND COSMIC: metal springs out, yarns are cut to give them liveliness and energy. We see fringed metallic canings that move in an almost animal way, like a fur made of plastic and metallic elements. Some aspects make me think of how metal was used in the 60s to transform a garment, but in a suppler, lighter way, for a new luminous and resolutely Giampietro Baudo, Editor in Chief, MF Fashion, Italy, JUROR, THE P.V. AWARDS 2016 futuristic approach.»
NEXT WINTER, WE ARE BETTING ON SHINE THAT COMES FROM A MIX OF FIBRES AND FINISHINGS. Combining laminations with plays on volume allows us to lend shine to knits, to give them reflections that only emerge in motion. We also developed 3D-looking jacquards composed of metal fibres that shine from different angles. Our offer also includes knits made from mixes of shiny fibres, like rayon or cupro, and velour, which reflect light in different ways.»

WE ARE PRESENTING A NEW RANGE OF YARNS where shine plays a leading role, and is revealed by little flashy touches. We are also seeking contrast between very matt fibres and other very shiny ones, like metallic polyamides and polyesters.»
Francesco Della Porta, Pozzi Electa,
Yarns, 6H52
IN OUR COLLECTION, BRIGHTNESS IS EXPRESSED either in little doses, with Lurex for example, sometimes in contrast with matt aspects, either via the textile fibre itself with the use of noble and silky materials. Among them is silk, of course, but also silk/wool or silk/cashmere blends.» Alexandrine Viera-Gomes, Montagut Industries-Orfama,

OUR SHINE IS SUPER NATURAL AND CELEBRATES THE RICHNESS OF THE SKIN. We achieve this without any fakery, without adding varnished or metallic finishings. The lustre in our leathers comes from a combination of the tanning and a natural finishing.»

“WE’VE BEEN TASKED WITH EXPLORING AND SHARING WAYS TO EXTEND THE LIFESPAN OF GARMENTS. ALMOST HALF OF CLOTHING’S ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT COMES FROM ITS USE.

SMART CREATION SQUARE ECO-RESPONSIBLE APPROACHES
THE GOAL OF PREMIÈRE VISION PARIS ? TO PROVIDE A VISIONARY, MULTIMEDIA AND INFORMATIVE SPACE. Here, at the latest tangible outgrowth of the Smart Creation Première Vision program, exhibitors, designers, buyers and fashion brands can experiment and visualise eco-responsible advances in the creative fashion industry. They can see for themselves the issues tied to the new needs of a consumer who is ever more aware of the need to buy better and Smarter. The space is thus a place for exchanges, information and documentation, with a decor - and an inspirational film - featuring a water theme. “The film obviously chooses to address the issue of water management, but also, more surprisingly, its embellishment and uses - all while bring out
the poetry and preciousness of this fundamental element,” explained Pascaline Wilhelm, Première Vision Fashion Director. Because there’s nothing better than sharing experiences, the space is home to a cycle of Smart Talks (see the program, opposite). These are open discussions and debates, delivered by small groups of experts in a series of quick, informative sound bites. Water and energy management, transparency of processes, systems and services are all on the program this season. The Smart Creation Square also features a Smart Library, with some 80 selected products made by companies already committed to a Smart Creation approach. This initiative launched in September 2015 aims to enhance the ethical and eco-responsible advances of exhibitors at the Première Vision shows: recycling, carbon emission reduction, water use, waste mana-
gement, use of organic materials, social policies. “Our role is educational. We want companies to embrace this source of added-value and open the markets of the future,” said Chantal Malingrey, Director of Marketing and Development at Première Vision. In this vein, a complete assessment of garment care, baptised Smart Care, has been integrated into the project. The project’s initiators asked industry leader Procter & Gamble to provide their expertise and solutions in terms of enhancing and caring for products during this crucial phase of a garment’s life - which begins after it’s sale. With this new space, Première Vision confirms its stance regarding responsibility and transparency, a lasting strategy that it means to develop with new follow-up initiatives each season.

still design myself, over the past ten years my job has focused on coordinating the other designers in our studio, which specialises in prints for clothing and decoration. Today, being creative is fundamental, but it isn’t enough. You have to know how to integrate your idea
interacting with technicians and supporting the workers: That’s where my experience comes from. You find that good ideas aren’t enough, you must transform those ideas into something concrete. Production is also a creative process. You have to be able to modify existing techniques or invent new ones, be curious as you check and modify each result. Like everyone else, we’ve faced accelerated, increasingly complex time schedules. But it hasn’t been too hard. We’ve always proposed at least two complete collections and dozens of new articles each year. And we can modify our products on request, in shorter time frames. But let’s talk about the strong comeback of ‘Made In Italy’! Everybody, I hope, has been happy to see how clients, especially European ones, want to shorten the supply chain, to better control product quality and meet ever-shorter deadlines!
into a commercial project. Then be able to interpret a client’s taste. The exponential development of inkjet printing over the past decade has revolutionised the industry. When I began, I drew by hand directly on the fabric. Today, while drawing by hand remains essential, the composition and colours are perfected on a computer. Hand-drawn and digital aspects work together. It’s all about creativity! And let’s not hide the reality: there are a lot of all-nighters in this industry. The time you have to realise proposals is always getting tighter; sometimes you have just a few hours to respond to requests. Which leaves no margin for error! Even today, I still feel like I’m taking an exam when I present my collections to our clients. Each time it’s like taking a plunge... sometimes you get great feedback, other times you get a chance to re-examine what you’re doing.
