Twice a year, international apparel textile trade shows open in New York City with news of what's ahead in fashion. According to Jacques Brunel, managing director, Première Vision S.A., Paris, "the market wants to see something new" — and there was a lot of it at the most recent shows. Première Vision Preview, Texworld USA and Kingpins all showed innovation from fiber producer through to fabric knitter and weaver.
