For the past 20 years, designers had the chance of sourcing great luxury fabrics in one luxury venue in London – and the upcoming Textile Forum will continue the tradition. As sustainability is top of mind for many designers, there will be plenty of choice at the two-day international event to be held from March 16, 2022 at One Marylebone in London.

At the fair, there will be fabric that is inherently sustainable as it is made from a natural resource and ranges that are produced from products that might otherwise find its way to landfill. Additionally, more and more fabric suppliers are looking to find ways to be more sustainable within their own business, using more natural products and reducing wastage, the organiser said in a press release.

Apart from the fabric suppliers, who offer silks, cottons, leathers and wools for womenswear, menswear, bridalwear, lingerie and interiors, those exhibiting accessories such as buttons, linings and labels, will participate in the Textile Forum.

Most items are also available from stock, from well-established, predominantly UK companies that have been working with leading fashion houses across the world – and all exhibitors offer low minimum quantities – often from 1m.

In November 2021, UKFT took over the ownership of this successful event and it has become part of its wide range of activities that are undertaken to support the UK fashion and textile industry and promote these sectors in the domestic market and throughout the world.
