MUNICH FABRIC START

This season, Polytex Stoffen's collection dives deep into themes of sustainability and modernity. They've curated a palette that mixes rich, earthy tones like deep green, warm brown, red, and ochre yellow with cooler, industrial hues and a soft pastel range. Their styles range from contemporary minimalist designs to layered, textured fabrics that embody a sense of luxury and comfort. Abstract designs and vibrant color-blocking, including bold combinations of red and pink, are prominent, following the latest trends. Standout pieces feature minimalist prints on woven jacquard, adding subtle yet striking detail to their fabrics. Meet Polytex Stoffen in H4 | A 06!

FABULOUS FUNGI BY ILSE KREMER in our SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS area: Due to the extensive use of harmful chemicals in the fashion industry, synthetic textile dyes are a significant threat to sustainability. They contribute to water pollution as dye residues enter factory wastewater and rivers and can even lead to serious health issues for people handling them. Additionally, synthetic dyeing processes require substantial use of water and energy. Ilse Kremer, the mastermind behind “Fabulous Fungi”, addresses these issues by utilizing fungi to create sustainable textile dyes.

INTUITION - The Autumn.Winter 25/26 season is all about “INTUITION” and stands for the daily mass of information and opinions that makes it increasingly difficult to classify their correct origin or false content. To master this chaos and regain control, we must learn to follow our intuition once more. The source of creativity and quality of life is human intelligence, not AI. Following this, the new season’s themes are about people’s feelings; the notion of the increasing need for protection and security or the desire for modern romance, ignoring rationality dictates. Nature gives us peace and strength and inspires us with its mixture of vulnerability and strength. Sharpness and glamour make a comeback. You will find the detailed forecast for “INTUITION” with 5 specific trend themes as well as the 7 BLUEZONE trends based on the main theme “DENIMINED” in our detailed TREND FORECAST. The Colour Code will be available as Digital Colour Code; a QR code for the free download of the seasonal colours is included with your Trend Forecast order.
