11.04.12 Collections Fast Fashion Lille
Efficient suppliers within easy reach: a new event devoted to private fashion labels &
accessories.
13 & 14 June will see the debut of Collections Fast Fashion Lille, the new show devoted to
mens, womens and childrens ready-to-wear and accessories and private
label collections. It is the first spring 2012 fashion event.
Collections Fast Fashion Lille has been devised in response to the Eurovet survey of fast
fashion ready-to-wear manufacturers and buyers of fashion collections for high-street
chains and mass retail, mail order and e-commerce. Today’s fast-fashion sales strategy
means moving away from the seasonal pattern and launching new items on an almost
ongoing basis, through extensive distribution channels and at affordable prices.
This market survey/proposal has revealed the importance of:
- keeping our finger on the pulse of the market. Lille, with its dense fabric of local
clothing sector industries, is fast becoming the epicentre of fast fashion
- offering fast and efficient solutions in step with the garment manufacturers
ever-changing needs
- maximising on the synergy with the textiles and supplies manufacturers.
One thing is clear, and that is how crucial it is to work closely together to make the
sector more responsive, both upstream and downstream.
Pairing Tissu Premier, the exhibition of novelty fabrics and supplies, with Collections Fast
Fashion Lille was an obvious move. Together, the two shows make up Fast Fashion Lille,
echoing the complementary and highly pertinent offer of the Fast Fashion Tour (currently
still taking place in London).
The aim of bringing Tissu Premier and Collections Fast Fashion Lille under the single banner
of Fast Fashion Lille is to present the fashion industry with a comprehensive offer, from
textiles to finished garments. Professionals will encounter the full range of capabilities to
fulfil their need for a range of methods and suppliers. The dialogue stimulated by these two
events will lead to a better understanding of the specifics of each one, constructive
networking and even synergies or partnerships between weavers, clothing manufacturers
and distributors.
Thanks to the participation of the entire fashion chain, Fast Fashion Lille is an alliance that
covers the entire supply chain from design to manufacturing, providing responses and
solutions in terms of products, prices, lead times, quality and diversity.
Collections Fast Fashion Lille: fast fashion in style.

Collections Fast Fashion Lille takes place at the ideal moment to capture the best of the
fast-fashion clothing and accessories collections updates, and is closely attuned to the
demand of fashion-forward customers.
Collections Fast Fashion Lille is the first show of the season:
A truly forward-looking event focusing on colours, silhouettes and styles, highlighting the
winter 2012/2013 and spring and summer 2013 bestsellers and forecasting what is to

As always in Lille, the event will provide high added-value fashion information, for the
benefit of customers and buyers, there will be a full programme of talks and trends analyses
with fashion observations and forecasts.
