![INDEX[1]JFW Textile View 2014-15 Autumn/Winter](images/title_index_01.gif)
The textile trends presented by JFW Tex. Division each season are born in Japan and not influenced by any other trends from Europe/America, based on sensitivity nurtured in four seasonal changes and respect for the Japanese language. An overview of the JFW Textile View A/W 2014-15 includes:
< Capacity to match words with deeds > ‘ Amid social globalization, we must fight the good fight, and rail against banality, by retaining a clear and fresh-minded vision at all times. It is significant to stride forward with inspirational supplies in our daily lives. It is equally essential to sustain adequate capacity, so that words can be effectively matched to deeds.’ |

The trend corner features our original seasonal trends, as directed by the JFW Textile View 2014A/W, alongside fabrics submitted by exhibitors and well-categorized according to thematic trends, a perennial favourite of visitors thanks to its elaborate design. This time, the set-up for Tokyo will be rearranged from the Intertextile Shanghai lay-out and new and highlighted products from exhibitors at both shows, PTJ/JFW-JC will be displayed in the index corner; located at the entrance of both venues and guiding visitors to exhibitors’ booths. |

The Premium Textile Japan (PTJ), which aims to unite top buyers and market providers of authentic brands/products with leading makers of high-quality added-value textiles celebrates its 6th anniversary. Boasting a rosy track record of success in the past 5 shows to date, this fair has also achieved an unrivalled rate of application. Relocating to Tokyo International Forum from last year was well-received by visitors, evaluating it as ‘more convenient and accessible’; hence more than 5,000 visitors in the previous S/S PTJ. The records, namely the high rate of buyers (87%) when breaking down visitor numbers, confirm and prove beyond doubt that the PTJ is not just a festival but a truly successful textile business venue for serious negotiations as well as the key go-to event for the textile industry. |

‘JFW Japan Creation’ (JFW-JC) is the only textile fair in Japan uniting most fabric makers/companies in domestic textile regions, not only providing a business hub, but also the perfect venue for promotional activities. This means exhibitors can promote both techniques and products to new customers, exchange views and information on future directions and ultimately develop unique and unrivalledcreations. Having relocated to the Tokyo International Forum from the previous year, the JFW-JC show has won new popularity, filling to capacity in record speed and leading to numerous waitlisted applications, mainly thanks to the synergy of the concurrent ‘PTJ’ fair, awareness of which is increasing. |

‘Wool’ is this year’s thematic material of the academic-industrial collaboration programme, aiming to cultivate human resource for the new generation. Thanks to cooperative support by Japan’s representative woolmaker, ‘NIKKE’ (THE JAPAN WOOL TEXTILE CO., LTD.), new potential to elicit the creative value of wool has been sought and developed.
The garments created by students from 8 selected groups comprising the design jury represent dramatic yet contemporary expressions of an official style, wafting a nuanced fusion of tones and fabrics which bring together indulgent, sensual thematic colours and the standard allure of wool material, ready to be presented and displayed. |
