A Hard-Working, Optimistic Session Turned on “Tomorrow!”

The return to Paris turned out to be extremely positive. Though visitors were present in greater numbers than the last session in Lyon, what stands about this edition is the stellar quality of attendees. Beyond the significant increases in market-leading lingerie and swim brands this session, the presence of key players in Sport/Lifestyle/Yoga was noted by exhibitors, in addition to top names from the world of Haute Couture.

General Forum

Interfilière showcased the Autumn/Winter 2018/2019 Lingerie and Swimwear Trends in an exceptional General Forum.

Designers, stylists, and other visitors to the General Forum, which this year brought together Lingerie and Swimwear trends in the same space, all hailed the exceptional inspiration to be found there, driven by giant printed collages from Ellen Haeser, a Dutch designer specialized in the art of stylistic blending.

The Autumn/Winter 18-19 Fabric Trends For Lingerie, Loungewear, Swimwear, and Activewear

The season’s 6 major themes:

The Dreamer: Romantic lingerie expresses the duality of being both a true feminist and eternally girly! Find lightness and frivolity, but also innovations and surprises.

Phantom: An imaginary world of mystical femininity combines fabrics’ visual weight with a supernatural search for lightness.

The Nomad: Natural tones and handmade products go beyond the ethnic trend to a deep desire for a healthier lifestyle.

Fragrant: Not-so-classic flowers create lingerie in daring colour and fabric combinations with leaf motifs and autumn mushrooms.

The Warrior: Draping, lace, ribbons, zippers, and straps . . . enveloped in metallic accents and camouflage, warrior women are ready to face the challenges of city life!

Expressionists: Athleisure for every day mixes sport and comfort. It’s an architectural vision focused on the very essence of “wearable.”

Brown, the new black,
Lightness . . . goes on and on,
Fluid fabrics, prints at centre stage, colours are key,
Textured surfaces,
The soft cup revolution,
Natural, sustainable fibres . . .

Innovation Forum & “Tomorrow!”

When TECH enters the world of Lingerie, swim, and activewear, brand take notice. Whatever the level of application, technology is no longer a problem; it’s a solution.

The Innovation forum on a Print theme, and the new “Tomorrow!” platform, a future-oriented tool, were the clearest illustration of this.

The Future is finally, concretely at hand and within our grasp, as reflected in the experimental work from 5 students of the renowned Central Saint Martins in London, and in the high-tech boxers from Parisian start-up Spartan, that has set all the media abuzz.

The show, through its comprehensive, international product offer, its trends, and inspiration spaces, exceeded the expectations of manufacturers and visitors, providing food for thought on the textiles of tomorrow, meeting the needs and challenges facing this industry.

Interfilière Paris exhibitors were unanimous in their praise: they were all delighted with the interest seen in products with high added-value. The latest collections were hailed by all. They managed to act as real advisors, offering orientations and true partnerships. Clients need to understand the product and its end uses. This session, sustainable development, the activewear market, and a search for softness, lightweight, and comfort were the leading trio in terms of visitor requests.
