Today, real innovations in the fashion sector are the result of a close exchange between creative minds and experts with ideas and visions. This is the reason why Interfilière offers with INNOVATIVE CO-WORKING a new platform for an individual get-together from 18. to 20. January 2020 in Paris.

Here, brand strategists, staff members of start-ups and designer entrepreneurs have the possibility to start conversations with the top-level trendsetters from all fields of the textile supply chain. One of the innovative partners for an efficient brainstorming is KARL MAYER, a pioneer in textile machinery building, who increasingly also develops textile product concepts. „In the last few months, we have been focusing on the topics of Electronic Wearable, Bodymapping for Sportswear, One-Piece Creations for Lingerie and Genre-Mix, especially the combination of Lingerie and Swimwear with Athleisure. The developed styles and concepts already met with a great response at different trade fairs.

In Paris, too, we are looking forward to having many interesting conversations in this respect“, reveals Gabriela Schellner, Head of Textile Technology at KARL MAYER, about the fashion topics, on which the visitors have the right to expect valuable inspirations and latest information. In particular the lingerie business provides diverse development potential due to the know-how transfer, especially from the sportswear industry with its high demands on the function of clothing.

The Good Cashmere Standard expands Animal Welfare Assessment on audited farms

With the Animal-related Animal Welfare Assessment (ARAWA), the Aid by Trade Foundation (AbTF) conducts a pioneering project for the second consecutive year in 2025, parallel to the independent verifications of The Good Cashmere Standard® (GCS). ARAWA assessments provide a comprehensive overview of the health status of a herd on an audited farm, going beyond standard verification procedures. They are inherently complex, which still makes them a rarity in the standard sector, but offer support in identifying non-conformities and provide a holistic overview of the herd's well-being. Therefore, the Aid by Trade Foundation will continue this crucial project and even further expand it by 2027.
