Talks dedicated to key sustainable fashion issues will be held in the Talks Area, Hall 4 and also be viewable on the show’s website. Visitors should note that half the day on February 8 will be dedicated to Smart Tech and organised in partnership with fashion tech magazine The Interline.
A wealth of information and educational content is to be found in the sustainability section of the online Première Vision magazine. Four white papers shedding light on the major challenges facing the industry in terms of sustainability are Fashion & Sustainability, the major challenges; Fashion & Sustainability, the keys to sustainable sourcing; Fashion & Traceability; and Fashion & Leather.
A new zone dedicated to digital innovation inside the Smart Creation area is a space that supports the industry’s ecological transition through digital and technological innovations from 20 companies among the most advanced in their field.
A special area has been organised in partnership with the IFTH, reconstructing the digitalisation chain of a fashion product. Guided tours of the Smart Tech area will be offered to learn more about the exhibiting companies.
Since 2011, Première Vision has been a partner of the Hyères International Fashion, Photography and Accessories Festival, which promotes young talent in the fields of fashion design, accessories, and photography. This partnership is highlighted in February, with an exhibition in Hall 4 dedicated to the collection of young fashion designer Jenny Hytönen, winner of the Grand Prix du Jury Première Vision at the 37th edition of the festival.
The show will welcome the 10 fashion competition finalists of the 38th Festival, who will be attending to source materials from a selection of exhibitors who have volunteered to help them build the collections they will be presenting in Hyères from October 12–15, 2023, added the release.
To better understand the challenges fashion faces now and in the future, a panel of industry professionals and experts will speak about the major issues making news in the industry. There will be half a day of four talks dedicated to technological innovations and solutions proposed in the Smart Tech zone, organised by The Interline and hosted by its founder Ben Hanson.
In keeping with the Spring-Summer 24 season’s theme, visitors will get to explore sustainable fashion from the entrance tunnel in Hall 4. The Grand Prix for Photography & Sustainability 2021 – Paris Good Fashion x Eyes on Talent is a photography exhibition that will be held at the event.
