Cotton and linen are highly favored in men's spring and summer clothing due to their softness, breathability, and skin-friendly properties. Looking at the men's fashion shows in Paris, Milan, and London for the spring and summer of 2024, cotton and linen fabrics are mainly used to create a comfortable and casual style. Among them, basic smooth cotton fabrics account for a stable proportion of about 30%, mainly used in trench coats and shirts, presenting a dry paper-like texture and a firm fit; yarn-dyed striped fabrics, accounting for about 25%, create a sense of urban relaxation and vacation with simple and thick stripes and decorative techniques; rustic cotton and linen blends, accounting for about 15%, feature a natural texture with the feel of bamboo joints, showcasing the beauty of natural materials. In addition, the highlights and trends of cotton and linen fabrics in men's clothing this season include paper-like irregular wrinkles, lightweight translucent textures in cotton blends, and uragiri textures.

The world is changing, and the second exhibition of Playtime Shanghai will present an image of the children's universe, that takes on today's social challenges in order to protect the freedom to be openly and courageously unique. It is the incarnation of a world of solidarity in its diversity, of a "wild" state of childhood where creativity and spontaneity, individualism and simple pleasures of the senses are combined. It is a joyful disorder, in which each one finds a place, the happy wasteland of a future whose complexity is not put in doubt, but where the collective, the freedom and the sensuality celebrate new utopias.
