Natural fabrics at Textile Forum

From 19-20th October, fashion fabrics show Textile Forum will zoom in on woven

and knitted fabrics from natural fibres. This will be more evident with the debut of several exhibitors.

Known for its cashmere, Johnstons of Elgin, The Merino Company will present its blended jerseys and intricate jacquards, and British Alpaca fashion. Filtex will show the 3D effect created with embroidery and bridal fabrics with this effect. A range of cottons from Acorn and Ringhart, fine wools and cashmeres from Holland & Sherry, tweeds from Marling & Evans, merino wool knits from JT Knitting, buttons from R & B Accessories and exotic leathers from G H Leathers are also on display at the exhibition.

Textile Forum is established in 2002, and focuses on designers, manufacturers, dressmakers and fabric specialists. Exhibitors offer small minimums, and many have stock and short order fabrics, and collections forward orders.
