Trade Show Details
Materials+ is for the stage before a footwear or bag collection becomes a finished product. Its emphasis on fashion materials, components and manufacturing inputs makes it useful to development teams as well as sourcing buyers. A sample swatch should lead to questions about performance, colour consistency and compatibility with the intended construction. Running alongside APLF Leather and Fashion Access, the exhibition connects these upstream choices with leather sourcing and finished-product development without making the three shows interchangeable.
