Following the successful View Premium Selection, Munich Fabric Start is now in the starting blocks. From September 3 to 4, the Munich fabric fair including Bluezone, Keyhouse and The Source will offer trade visitors a broad overview of the collections for the autumn/winter 2025/26 season.

The motto of the upcoming trade fair is ‘Intuition’. Exhibitors will be showcasing their new products from the Fabrics, Additionals and Sustainable Innovations segments on around 40,000 square metres. Designers, product managers and fashion makers can view around 1,000 collections from renowned manufacturers in eight areas, including Circleline Design, Dutel, Cadica Group, DMISS Textile Group and Akin, Bernini Studio, Albini, Amanda Kelly, Bornemann Etiketten as well as Erica, Escher Textil, EU/Fenili, Evotex, Fortex and Fusion CPH.

Other exhibitors include Getzner, Iskur, Leti, Liberty, Lica Design Studio, Limonta, Lisa, Lyria, Malhia Kent, Manteco, Maxim, Milior, M360 – Miroglio Group, Nilörn, Nova Fides, Panama Trimmings, Redmark, Riopele, Somelos, Studio 9, Takisada, Tessuti di Sondrio, Top Trends, Trimco Group, Union3 Fashion, Viscotex, Weft, WeNordic and Yünsa 

As usual, the trade fair programme will be rounded off by an extensive programme of keynote speeches and panel discussions. The highlight will once again be the two-hour trend forecast by Li Edelkoort on the Wednesday of the fair. The focus will be on colour and the metropolis of Paris as driving forces for inspiration and development.

‘The successful View continues to have an impact: the palpable sense of optimism in the industry and the atmosphere characterised by a cautiously optimistic outlook allow us to look forward to September with great expectations,’ summarises Managing Director Sebastian Klinder in the run-up to the September edition. 

“At the same time, the international trade fair landscape is changing. While physical events are experiencing a remarkable recovery after the pandemic, there is also a trend towards greater efficiency and effectiveness,” says the trade fair boss. 

The upcoming September edition is an example of this: the trade fair has strategically shortened its duration to two days in order to better meet the needs of the industry and market trends that rely on more compact events with shorter travel times and more cost-effective solutions, explains Klinder.
