Visions for the Textile Industry

One goal of ISPO MUNICH is to be a gateway for future trends. In cooperation with a trend expert ISPO MUNICH studied various global trends with influence on the textile industry and its products. In combination with the defined trend colors and five more detailed textile trends, these mega trends provide a good vision where the future of textiles will take us.

ISPO MUNICH is very pleased to have the opportunity to share these visions for Fall/Winter 2017/18 with the textile industry and to use these trends as a basic guideline for ISPO TEXTRENDS 2016. The mega trends show visions that are not specific to one particular area but will influence the entire textile chain right down to the consumer.

The color cards and the textile trends result from a range of influences, from consumer behavior to the global economy. Film, music, social media, art and many other activities are reflected in these trends. They form a basic guideline how new developments and innovations of ingredient products are shown, presented and highlighted at ISPO TEXTRENDS 2016.

Seasonal Color Palette

CLASSIC ACTIVE

The pivotal seasonal color palette of bestselling tones takes a brighter approach this season. Hues take on a more solid approach with a sharper and more intense appeal accentuated with increased neutrality from a range of gray tones complete with black and white.

Satellite Color Palettes 

HAZY DAZE

A crisp and sharp palette inspired by nature comprised of subtle tones that can also take on a more luminary and crystallized role through brighter yarns and finishes. This delicate palette is also enhanced through the surface appeal from ultra matt and powdery handles through to milky touch for enhanced base-layer applications.

JUMPIN’

An energetic offering of dense tones through to uplifting brights feature, there is a feel-good factor present. This color palette has a lot of mileage for the print sector as well as appealing to natural and synthetic offerings in altering the surface appeal. Black is a key component in enhancing the vibrant brights, this is about taking traditional tones to a new level.

WIZARDRY

Mystical and ethereal in delivery, this palette can be worked down through to a rich, matte appeal or worked up through a metallic and lacquered approach for a feel of luxury and gleam. There is a heightened sense of reworking rich and neutral tones in creating something new and exciting for the season.

MANGA MANIA

Pushing the boundaries of the color spectrum, the intense bright and synthetic tones of this palette can be taken even higher to a fluorescent level, screaming intensity and grabbing the spotlight. Geared towards the synthetic side of the textile sector, there is a renewed appeal and optimism as fantasy comes through.
