Underlying themes

This year, China Home Textile Association, The Department of Home Textile Trend Research and Promotion, Concept & Style Fashion Project Group Italy have worked jointly to analyse global and domestic market together with consumer behaviour. From this, four themes were developed to express the 2018/19 Chinese home textiles trends: Down to earth: The tension generated by the increasing pervasiveness of digital screens and their sterility, leads to research an earthy connection, with roots and experience in nature. Connected senses: The digital revolution began with the transformation and transposition of an increasing number of ‘real life’ activities in expressible functions through digital entities. No borders: The multifaceted urban contest and the network are changing the way we perceive communities, identities and the way we pass a cultural substance. Re-thinker: We are in a period of transition, we eliminate the excesses to come to the lightness of being. We discover again the value of timeless classics, which are reinvented for the future.

To provide visitors with concrete ideas on trend concept and encourage companies to develop new products, the show will select products from exhibitors, which resonate the four trend themes presented in the Trend Area.
