PERFORMANCE DAYS is making it possible for designers, product, purchasing and material managers to meet up twice a year in a familiar and professional environment. POP Fashion digs into the functional fabric fair and gives you analysis reports on three directions: wovens, knits and accessories. This report focuses on knitted fabrics' materials, performance and appearance.

The comfort brought by dense structures is the common point of knitted fabrics. From high-performance wool to comfortable fleece, knitwear displays the advantages. Tidy, urbanized knits are developed to satisfy the requirements in more occasions, from business and city commuting to casual. Besides, honeycomb structure has also become a noteworthy trend.

The printing design at A/W 23/24 Digital Première Vision Paris sources inspirations from the great natural world. Designers interpret the diversity of plants and animals through their artistic languages. Digital techniques update the prints to present artistic leaves, digital flowers, wild ditsy florals, botanic camous and geometric shapes. The hand-painted touch of childlike landscapes, painted vegetation and fresh flowers pays homage to the nature. The comeback of Medieval wallpaper and motifs of Morris rediscovers the era of Art Deco.

PERFORMANCE DAYS functional fabrics fair took place again at the Messe München exhibition grounds on April 27 and 28, 2022. This year’s Focus Topic ‘The Journey to CO2 Neutrality’ aims to accompany the industry on its path to climate neutrality as part of a roadmap spanning three fairs. The spring fair already witnessed great examples of how CO2 reducing technologies can be implemented in the fiber sector to lower a fabric’s CO2 footprint. Regenerated polyester and nylon blend develop knitted fabrics in different forms. Eco-friendly dyeing follows the concepts of circular economy and embraces the technologies of recovered solution dyeing and low-temperature dyeing. The sustainable blending of comfortable wool provides cozy experiences. Jacquard textures diversify the appearances through different techniques.

Although ‘recycling’ has been a keyword for multiple years, most recyclable materials are made from PET bottles. Now, we broaden the range of raw materials and treatment to develop low-impact products in 2023 summer. Recycling & rebirth, food upgradation, natural bast, improved elasticity, bold flowing, and original pigment are the noteworthy points for sustainable fabrics.

With the blurred boundaries between commuting and casual scenes, there have also been more connections between differing fabrics. “Natural”, “minimalist”, “lightweight”, and “retro” are the keywords. For S/S 2023 suiting and coating, Plant Origin, Commute Time, Powerful Stripe, Airy Worsted, and Texture Precipitation are the five recommended topics. Vibrant color, light weight, earthy scent, and prominent botanic fibers follow the concepts of sustainable fashion.

Knit and cotton are the two essential categories for the casual everyday wardrobe in spring and summer. Knitted fabrics have been evolved into statement-making products with strong tactility and visual effects. Cotton textiles are tended to be more natural on material and appearance. Skin touch, mesh knitting, crossover knitting, ribbon stripes, soft wrinkles, and natural wovens are the noteworthy points for knitwear and shirt.

The jacquard, embossing, and woven textures in S/S 2023 PV exhibition attract tactility and vision. Tactile texture has a relief effect; 3D jacquard pattern enriches the visual layers; colorful floral jacquard creates a mysterious garden; the uneven woven texture is worth touching; impressive fluorescent colors awaken the visual joy.
