Blossom Première Vision AW27-28 Expands Luxury Offer with Focus on Craftsmanship and Savoir-Faire
Blossom Première Vision AW27-28 is set to return to the historic Carreau du Temple in Paris on 3–4 June 2026, introducing an expanded luxury offering centred around garment making, heritage craftsmanship, and contemporary textile innovation. Positioned as a curated sourcing destination for luxury fashion professionals, the event will bring together specialised manufacturers, artisans, and textile innovators from across the globe.
This edition will host more than 75 carefully selected exhibitors, with strong representation from France, Italy, and the United Kingdom. Known for its highly selective and intimate format, Blossom Première Vision continues to serve as a focused business platform designed to facilitate strategic meetings, sourcing opportunities, and commercial collaborations between exhibitors and leading fashion houses.
Dedicated Focus on Garment Manufacturing
For the first time, Blossom Première Vision will introduce a dedicated section for specialised garment makers. The new showcase will feature members of the Groupement de la Fabrication Française (GFF) and Mode Grand Ouest (MGO), alongside selected French ateliers and manufacturers recognised for their expertise in luxury garment production.
The initiative aims to connect material sourcing directly with manufacturing know-how, creating a complete ecosystem for brands and designers seeking high-level craftsmanship and technical precision. Participating exhibitors will highlight expertise in pleating, structural fabric shaping, precision sewing, and the transformation of luxury materials into finished garments.
Spotlight on French Living Heritage Companies
The exhibition will also feature a curated gathering of EPV-certified companies (Entreprises du Patrimoine Vivant), celebrating traditional French craftsmanship across textiles, leather, lace, embroidery, and metal accessories.
The participating exhibitors represent regional savoir-faire from Lyon’s silk weaving heritage and Normandy’s garment-making traditions to Bourgogne-Franche-Comté’s metal craftsmanship. The showcase will include expertise in Jacquard weaving, artisanal knitting, luxury leather tanning, haute couture lace production, embroidery, and custom metal detailing.
Innovation and Creative Exploration at the Forum
At the centre of Blossom PV AW27-28, the Forum will present an immersive exhibition space focused on the theme “Living Matter.” The concept places materials at the heart of creative expression, highlighting how textiles evolve into emotional, expressive, and innovative design elements.
The Forum will showcase seasonal developments, colour directions, and finished products while exploring the transformation process behind textile creation and craftsmanship. The space is designed to encourage dialogue, discovery, and creative inspiration for fashion professionals attending the event.
Emerging Talent and Artistic Installations
This season, Blossom Première Vision will also highlight emerging creative talent through the “Blooming Talent by Blossom PV” initiative. The exhibition will feature a special showcase dedicated to a young designer whose work merges ancestral craftsmanship techniques with contemporary urban aesthetics through embroidery and artificial flower creation.
In addition, textile house Guigou, founded in 1826, will celebrate its bicentennial through a dedicated artistic installation led by IFM graduate Olivia Philibert, founder of the upcoming label ESSARTER. The installation explores biomimicry and the relationship between textile heritage, the human body, and the natural environment through experimental fabric reinterpretations described as “garment-organs.”
The exhibition continues to reinforce Blossom Première Vision’s position as a premium platform where luxury craftsmanship, innovation, and heritage manufacturing converge within the global fashion sourcing industry.
