NEW YORK - Première Vision Preview New York and Indigo New York (formerly Direction by Indigo) held their combined trade shows last week, drawing an increased number of visitors New York City’s Metropolitan Pavilion and Altman Building compared to the previous year.
Billed as a ‘one-stop shopping event, which kicks off the Spring/Summer 2013 season,’ attendees could purchase the latest textiles and prints as well as obtaining essential materials, and gaining an insight on future industry trends via seminars, colour range and the fabric forum.
With 3,818 registered visits at the combined shows, an increase of 10.5% over last January, organisers were keen to stress that the dynamic North American market was now actively seeking new fabrics and designs.
Indigo New York on its own drew 27% more visits with attendees including high-end designers and retailers like Theory, Li Fung, Lord & Taylor, Proenza Schouler, Oscar de la Renta, Ann Taylor, Greg Norman, and many others.
Premiere Vision provided a variety of services including trend forecasting seminars, the fabric forum and the colour wall, all of which are designed to help designers create chic, relevant collections. The trend seminar discussed three major fashion “stories” for Spring/Summer 2013: “full/light”, “massive/supple” and “fluid / long and lean.”
"In 2013, we are likely to see elegant looks, fine layers, raw materials mixed with synthetics, singular details and localized patterns," organisers said. "Key combinations of fresh, vibrant hues were presented on the colour wall. The fabric forum grouped together materials from the exhibitors, highlighting the season’s most important trends."
