Lica‘s new versatile print collection for Spring/Summer 24 is based on two poles that form the essence: ‚Superfluity‘ and ‚Understatement. There are various reasons to find joy in the opulence of colors and shapes: It dresses you in self-confidence during uncertain times. And, it might make you question what is real, as the natural and virtual worlds blend. The diametrically opposed ‘Understatement’ finds peace in the reduction of color and the disappearance of form. It looks for nothing less than the essence of harmony. Solitude can be defined as a luxury.

FABRIC.iD – Digitize Your Fabrics

FABRIC.iD LAUNCH – DIGITIZE YOUR FABRIC

13. December 2021

Munich Fabric Start Exhibitions GmbH launches FABRIC.iD – a process for the complete digitization of fabrics. The new texture scanner xTex and the colour scanner can:scan transform textiles into virtual data. The result: digital twins that reproduce the texture and colour of the materials realistically and flawlessly.

Munich Fabric Start Exhibitions GmbH, organiser of the International Fabric Trade Show MUNICH FABRIC START and the International Denim Trade Show BLUEZONE, is now offering the digitization service FABRIC.iD to support digital processes in the first step of the textile supply chain. From structure to colour composition to rigidity – the innovative texture and colour scanners xTex and can:scan from software companies Vizoo GmbH and Caddon Printing & Imaging GmbH capture all the details of the texture and translate them into virtual data. Digitization generates a unique fabric ID which makes the textiles technically identifiable, traceable and usable. The result: digital, realistic fabrics.

The service was first presented in all facets during MUNICH FABRIC START, from 31 August – 02 September 2021 in Munich. The process expands MUNICH FABRIC START’s range of products to digital, indefinitely.

“We are incredibly proud to be able to offer FABRIC.iD at MUNICH FABRIC START – a technology that is unique in the world. From now on, our customers can send their fabrics to us or bring them directly to us to see the process – our team will then take over the scanning process and digitize the textiles, at the trade fair and throughout the year. We then make the data available for further processes. The samples can be measured without restriction on any monitor with a click of the mouse and used for sales, product presentations, design processes, trying on avatars and other areas of application – the perfect addition to the physical experience at the trade show.”

Sebastian Klinder, Managing Director Munich Fabric Start

A NEW DIGITAL DIMENSION

Until now, analogue processes between buyers and suppliers have taken a lot of time, often with the result that the exact colour, pattern and the right material cannot be found. can:scan and xTex offer a unique solution for this: they enable the exact colour detection of textiles and the creation of colour-fast digital patterns, so that interactive approval processes can be carried out online and 80% of the previous time required for analogue processes can be saved. Three-dimensional objects are scanned with the highest precision – even colour nuances that are created by light and shadow can be differentiated, measured and displayed using the new technology. The digital data renders time-consuming and costly transportation obsolete, lead times are reduced as well as costs for textile samples, with more precise results delivered – always in good time before the start of the collection.

“Everyone who works with such processes knows the effort involved in the analogue coordination between buyers and suppliers. These can drag on for a very long time and in the end a substance is released that does not actually meet the original idea, but instead comes as close as possible. In some cases, collection components are completely cancelled because a consistent result simply cannot be achieved in the allotted time. We are solving this problem with the new technology from FABRIC.iD.”

Michael Nothelfer, Managing Director of Caddon Printing & Imaging GmbH

The innovative digitization takes place in the Fabric Studio, the showroom of Munich Fabric Start Exhibitions GmbH. There the textiles are scanned – the exact texture can be recognised and transformed within a very short time. In the first step, the exact colour and pattern are determined, then the surface structure is determined. A physical material analysis is then carried out, in which the weight, rigidity, thickness, elasticity and other material properties of the textile are precisely determined. This enables an accurate simulation of the drape properties of the fabric. In addition, FABRIC.iD also understands the spectral yarn colour values ​​of the dye works and the weaving data of industrial looms in order to generate visually correct and colour-correct textures for 3D applications.

Modifications are not made subjective, instead, validly collected data ensures a high degree of authenticity and coordination between the physical and virtual product. By using the open source U3M format, the digital material is compatible with almost every 3D-capable application. Since fabrics can differ greatly in their properties, three different categories are offered: Standard for less structured and monochrome materials, Advanced for strong structures and colours, as well as a third category, Complex, for complex patterns and very shiny materials.

 “It’s the latest technology on the market with uniquely advanced methods that outcompetes any other solutions in the world. At MUNICH FABRIC START we are now making the technology accessible in our FABRIC.iD studio. A milestone for the industry – not only in the direction of digitization, but also in the direction of sustainability,”

Martin Semsch, Managing Director of Vizoo GmbH

A Very Successful Industry Reunion

MUNICH FABRIC START & BLUEZONE SUCCEED IN REUNITING THE INDUSTRY WITH A PARADE EXAMPLE FOR PHYSICAL TRADE SHOWS

7. September 2021

A whole year without physical trade fairs, long months without personal exchange: last week the physical International Fabric Trade Show MUNICH FABRIC START and the International Denim Trade Show BLUEZONE took place for the textile industry in Munich. The team at Munich Fabric Start Exhibitions GmbH is bringing a bit of normality back to the industry, but also to event management.

More than 600 international suppliers presented their new collections and developments for Autumn.Winter 22/23 in around 1000 collections in the Fabrics, Additionals, Design Studios, Sourcing, ReSource and Sustainable Innovations areas at MUNICH FABRIC START as well as denim, sportswear and KEYHOUSE at BLUEZONE. Around 13,400 international trade visitors were on site in Munich this season, which compared with exhibiting suppliers marked an increase in visiting fashion brands compared to the edition in September 2019. The organisers are more than happy with this result!

“Our team is exhausted, but overjoyed: the biggest challenge in our company’s history lies behind us! We actually managed to realise a comparable MUNICH FABRIC START and BLUEZONE with the usual broad portfolio in these times! Until the very last moment, we focused on making the shows a reality – despite all the challenges, measures and ongoing planning uncertainty. All our efforts were rewarded with all-round positive industry feedback and we can say our Covid-19 compliant trade shows were a complete success. Of course, we kept our expectations cautious due to the situation – which is precisely why we are so overwhelmed by the great result! It seems as if the whole textile industry was cheering and so grateful to be able to experience a few hours of ‘business as usual’ again.”

Sebastian Klinder, Managing Director Munich Fabric Start

A WINNING FUSION OF BLUEZONE & KEYHOUSE & WELL-ATTENDED EVENTS

Under the motto “BACK TO THE FUTURE”, BLUEZONE offered a way back to the tactile experience of textiles and the reunion of the denim community. In addition to international denim weavers and manufacturers, visitors to the Zenith Hall also saw a qualitative selection of KEYHOUSE exhibitors who presented their futuristic innovations for the fashion industry.

“BLUEZONE has always scored with a very special atmosphere – this time we surprised people in the Zenith Hall with an 80’s party feeling. Of course, business was not forgotten: the denim industry is currently brimming with sustainable innovations and new developments, all of which were presented in Munich. And the coal bunker right next door became an inspiring, Covid-19 compliant forum for lectures and panel discussions. Now all we can say is that we are doing everything we can to repeat this success in the following season.”

Frank Junker, Creative Director Munich Fabric Start

The organisers are also very proud of the success of the event program. Across 16 scheduled programs, information was shared on industry innovations and future-oriented topics, especially relating to circular economy, digital tools and production processes.Highlights included the trend presentation by David Shah and the panel discussions “Closing the Loop – How circular can the supply chain be?” and on “Local Manufacturing – A reality or just a temporary green gimmick?“.

“First of all I would like to thank the organisers for the enormous effort – I can imagine how much work it must have been in these times to realise a trade show and then even continue to offer the great service such as free coffee and free lunch for everyone! We are definitely all super grateful to be here, as you could see in the general joy of the visitors. For me, the three fair days were all about meeting again with live contact again. And my expectations were even exceeded: We were able to welcome a very good quality of visitors from all European countries and I am particularly pleased about the many interested new customers. “

Vlad Zisser, Zisser Design Studios (Sweden)

“We had a really very successful trade fair – all the important customers came and you could really feel how happy everyone was to finally meet again live. Now we just hope that it will continue like this and that the following events can also take place.”

Isabelle Hosatte Firmann, Dutel Creation (France)

POSITIVE VISITOR & EXHIBITOR ECHO DESPITE COVID-19 MEASURES

In keeping with the season’s title “RISE”, the visitors were greeted by inspiring, colourful trend forums with unique highlights for Autumn.Winter 22/23 collection development. In the halls, the industry was able to discover a trade show with the well-known and proven pre-pandemic quality with manufacturers and suppliers presenting in all 8 areas. Non-European suppliers were represented by agencies and offered well-attended show in show concepts.

The newly formed ReSOURCE x SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS area also drew in the crowds. In a modern atmosphere, information was shared on sourcing sustainable textiles and additionals as well as innovative concepts. Another highlight was the launch of FABRIC.iD, the innovative process for the complete digitisation of fabrics to greater serve the industry’s digital future.

 “What a goosebumps moment! Since the second edition of Munich Fabric Start in 1997, I’ve been coming from Paris to Munich every season to look for new fabrics, ideas and colours… And I can say – I’ve never looked forward to a fair like this time! It was a lot of fun and my team and I are just happy that it started again. The show has an incredibly pleasant and well-organised atmosphere, in which you simply feel warmly welcomed as a visitor, which is why I was there again on all three fair days! So I can only say: BRAVO and THANK YOU!”

Visitor Anja Seidl (France)

“Many thanks to the BLUEZONE team for organising a show for the denim community that we all longed for! I am sure that all exhibitors and visitors had a great time and we really appreciate your hard work.”

Visitor Robin Meijerink, Robin Denim (Netherlands)
