Fabric Trends S/S  24

Seen at PREMIER VISION and PERFORMANCE DAYS

In this trend report of textile innovations, I’ve gathered you my breakdown of the latest Performance Days in Munich and Premier Vision Paris for the A/W 23/24 season. Fashion and sports influence each other –  so I decided to combine them.

PERFORMANCE DAYS  FOCUS TOPIC November 2022: The Journey to carbon neutrality – TIME TO SCORE

“The vision of calculating the carbon footprint of individual fabrics came to life at the PERFORMANCE DAYS and Functional Fabric Fair by PERFORMANCE DAYS exhibitions in Munich, Portland and New York fairs earlier this year; this is the second stage, with an objective that by next year (2023) the products featured in the PERFORMANCE FORUM will have a quantified number attributed to them.” 

Focus Topic defines even further four categories:

These separated categories should be distinguished to have a differentiated view on the CO2 emissions to be able to increase transparency and comparability:

  • synthetic fibers with variants made of recycled polyester, recycled polyamide and polypropylene, saving up to 30-40% CO2 emissions
  • the use of biobased synthetic fibers such as those made from castor oil is exciting as we see significant CO2 reductions. Work is also currently underway to produce biopolymers from plant waste (biomass) in the future.
  • natural cellulosic based fibers such as Tencel™, hemp, organic cotton, Naia spun fiber or their recycled versions
  • wool and recycled wool
