Intertextile Apparel will encompass seven halls at the National Exhibition and Convention Center. Overseas exhibitors will be located in various pavilions and zones in Halls 5.1 (International Hall), 7.2 (Beyond Denim), and 1.2 (Accessories Vision). Meanwhile, numerous domestic exhibitors will be grouped by product end-use, featuring accessories, suiting and shirting fabrics, functional wear and sportswear fabrics, ladieswear fabrics, casualwear, denim, and more.
A key highlight is the Intertextile Directions Trend Forum in Hall 5.1, featuring diverse fabrics and accessories from exhibitors across the fairground, which correlate with the upcoming fashion theme for Spring / Summer 2027 – PARADOX, which connects the trends AFFECTION, BREATHE, BEWITCHING, and HONOURATION. The trends were conceived by four leading forecasters from the world’s fashion capitals: Sachiko Inoue (Tokyo), NellyRodi™ Agency (Paris), DONEGER | TOBE (New York), and Elementi Moda (Milan).

Mr Michael Bonzom, Creative Director of NellyRodi™ Agency, commented: “The Trend Forum acts as a human link, a bridge connecting cultural references and ensuring these are transmitted effectively. It promotes creativity, supports fabric makers, and builds a relationship with buyers. Essentially, it’s a relay of human connection, and I believe this shared understanding should be deeply received.”
