On August 24–25, Swedish textile producers participate for the first time at the Nordic Fabric Fair in the Stockholm Fashion District in Nacka. Six companies from the network of textile producers built up within the Microfactories project exhibit in a joint exhibition.
Nordic Fabric Fair (previous Preview Fabrics & Accessories) is a Scandinavian textile fair with international manufacturers, mills, and weavers. For many designers, the new season begins as much here as at the sketch table. The walls contain a great deal of knowledge from the experts in textile materials and accessories who participate. Here, the new collections are presented in an accessible way before the international fairs.
The companies will show examples of the high quality, specialization and flexibility that Swedish production entails. They will be on site throughout the fair to talk about Swedish production and its opportunities.
On August 24, a press lunch will also be held at the Stockholm Fashion District where Ellen Flybäck, project manager for Mikrofabriker, will present the project, the future of locally produced clothing and the participating companies. The lunch is organized by the Stockholm Fashion District and is unfortunately already fully booked, but you can put yourself on the waiting list here.
Participating companies are:
