Press Release
More than 200 domestic and international exhibitors will display linings, buttons, zippers, labels, threads and tapes and other accessories as part of Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics 2007, one of the leading apparel textile trade events in China. The show, which includes approximately 1,800 total exhibitors, runs 29 October to 1 November 2007 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre in Shanghai. The show is already popular for its apparel fabrics, trend forums and seminars, but it is also an important destination for buyers seeking the fashion accessories that put a garment together, add embellishment and label a brand.
Accessories play a smaller but significant role in the show. The popularity and interest in accessories will lead to a greatly enlarged area dedicated to them starting in 2008. This year, nearly all of the international exhibitors are returning after a successful show in 2006.
Among the famous names to expect this year are:
- Belgium fashion textile producer Concordia Textiles NV, will feature high-end linings for womens, mens and casual and sportswear
- Leading German clothing fasteners and accessories maker Union Knopf will display buttons and zippers for womens, mens, childrens and casual and sportswear
- Riri SA from Switzerland will showcase a wide range of zippers including metal, zinc and nylon
- Japanese trimmings and ribbon maker, Shindo Senikogyo Co. will show ribbons, knit tapes and piping and other trims
- And internationally famous Austrian crystal accessories designer Swarovski will showcase some of its latest product offerings and trend forecasts
“Besides showing the 2008 Autumn/Winter trends identified by our trend expert and our new Swarovski Elements for the seasons, we will also introduce the company’s dynamic new branding ‘Crystallized – Swarovski Elements’ to the industry,” says Mr Georg Nussdorfer for Swarovski Crystal.
The new brand is a special seasonal collection that showcases Swarovski’s most avant garde, technologically precise and trendiest collections. Mr Nussdorfer noted that presenting the new brand at Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics is a vital marketing tool. “This fair is one of the most important apparel fabrics fairs in the world and in particular Asia,” he says. “By joining this fair, we can demonstrate our leading position in the industry, build a fashionable and luxury image for our new brand, increase the awareness and preference of Swarovski Elements, find new business contacts and explore new customers.”
