Clothing/​Footwear, Sustainable

Visitors coming to find inspiration, share ideas, and build their coming collections of ready-to-wear, accessories (fashion jewellery and leather goods) and footwear will discover the Autumn-Winter 25-26 collections from over 920 international exhibitors (spinners, weavers, tanners, textile designers, accessories makers, garment manufacturers) from some 40 countries, including Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, Japan, UK, Belgium, South Korea, Turkey, China, and more.

As a leading organiser of international events for the textile, leather and apparel industry, Première Vision offers an extensive range of programs and solutions designed to support the entire industry, foster business discussion, promote and accompany the transition to a more sustainable fashion industry, encourage digitalisation, and of course support the development of ever more innovative collections.

Performance: Fashion teams up with sporting excellence

Held three weeks before the kick-off of the 2024 Olympic Games, Première Vision Paris joins in the exciting celebration of sport.

Over the decades, advances and innovations in the creative fashion industry have profoundly influenced the world of sport, both in its search for performance and in its expressions of elegance. The result? Products that are more comfortable, UV-resistant, water-repellent, windproof yet breathable, quick-drying... Première Vision Paris is proud to welcome several hundred material developments to the Sport & Tech universe, an opportunity to discover and explore the innovations and trends destined to shape the future of sportswear.

Tech & Sustainable commitment trace out the future of the industry

Launched in July 2023, ‘a better way’ - the program launched to recognise exhibitors’ efforts and investments in developing more sustainable fashion - is already celebrating its first year. Developed across all Première Vision shows, the program reflects a deep understanding of the current challenges facing the textile, clothing, leather... and fashion more broadly. In response to growing concerns about the environmental and social impact of clothing production, this program is committed to giving brands greater visibility in their sourcing by promoting exhibitors’ most virtuous approaches.

By emphasising sustainable practices, greater transparency, and high ethical standards, ‘a better way’ acts as a catalyst for change, meeting the expectations of brands and consumers concerned about the origin and impact of raw materials.

Smart Creation: technology serving transformation

The Smart Creation universe shines a light on exhibitors’ sustainable approaches, where innovation, eco- design and technological solutions are all shaping the future of fashion. Exhibitors are divided into three main categories:

- Smart Tech: cutting-edge technological solutions, digitization of materials, traceability systems, tools for measuring environmental impact.

- Smart Materials: ranges of innovative materials, sustainable alternatives (eco-designed fibres, plant-based dyes, etc.), reduced-impact chemical solutions, etc.

- Smart Services: assistance with certifications and sustainable initiatives.

Deadstocks

Introduced at the show in February 2024 as part of the Smart Creation universe, deadstock (materials unused by fashion houses) will once again be on offer at the show, in a dedicated area set aside for deadstock from PV Paris exhibitors. Additionally, two renowned experts in the field, Adapta and Nona Source, will be on hand to offer their expertise and support.
