Flowers and flower motifs are interpeted more graphically and in alienated colour combinations, being contemporary and suprisingly light at the same time. Here Gunold uses the organic COTTY BIO in combination with stunning Poly SPARKLE shades.

MUNICH FABRIC START – January 26 closing report
A solid trade show. An optimistic mindset. That sums up the outcome of MUNICH FABRIC START. After three days, the Munich textile fair came to an end yesterday, Thursday, with the integrated show-in-shows BLUEZONE, KEYHOUSE and THE SOURCE. MUNICH FABRIC START concluded with a stable visitor frequency compared to the previous event.
MUNICH FABRIC START – Between Attitude and Sensuality
The future begins where we reimagine it. The overarching theme of PLEASURE stands for fashion as an emotional space, as an expression of attitude and cultural reflection.
KnitForm+ by Jeanne Mora – SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS
What matters is how the textile responds: how it regulates volume, distributes pressure, and transitions from flat to three-dimensional states. Process transparency is embedded in the methodology itself.
Cartoon – WEAR YOUR OPTIMISM
Embark on this fashionable journey and discover the new Cartoon collection at our store. Be inspired, mix and match to your heart's content, and wear optimism—every day, for every occasion.
RETRAKT – SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS
Performance, in this context, is measured by organisational resilience. RETRAKT applies resilience engineering to help employees anticipate, monitor, respond to, and learn from complex and changing requirements.
MATERIA FUTURA – SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS
Materia Futura is not proposing a new bio-material category, nor a finished commercial textile. What distinguishes the project is its design-led investigation into the emotional and aesthetic dimensions of bio-based materials, an area often sidelined in sustainability discourse.
THREADED PROTOCOLS – SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS
Threaded Protocols is not a textile innovation in the commercial sense, nor a digital tool disguised as craft. What makes the work distinct is its material investigation into how computational logic originates in textile practice and what is lost when those logics are abstracted into opaque technological systems.
MARIE VILAY – SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS
Marie Vilay does not present a new fabric or production technique. What distinguishes her work is a method of reading and translating textile knowledge across cultures, systems, and moments of transition.
Interview with Simon Angel, Curator of SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS
Each season, the Sustainable Innovations forum brings together projects that provoke, inspire, and challenge assumptions. This year is no exception, with work ranging from bio-luxury couture to energy-generating textiles and regenerative materials grown from wetlands.
