The universes
A line, a drape, a seam: what makes a piece distinctive often becomes clear when you look more closely. This universe brings fashion and accessories together through materials, making and French manufacturing. Clothing, leather goods, footwear and textile creations share a common thread: turning a creative vision into a finished object, with attention to every stage along the way.
Pattern cutting, assembly, embroidery, leatherwork and finishing all contribute to a piece’s character. A silhouette matters, but so does its construction. A lining, a fastening, a line of stitching or the shaping of a pleat can explain a maker’s approach more clearly than a signature alone. These details give visitors a way into the story behind a collection.
Silk, wool, cotton, leather and newly developed materials each influence touch, volume and use. Brands are invited to explain their choices, where their pieces take shape and how they are made. The exhibition aims to make that information accessible, while keeping the distinction between a French brand identity and manufacturing in France clear.
This universe welcomes enquiries from established houses, independent brands, designers, manufacturers and workshops. An embroidered evening piece, an everyday accessory and a leather creation can express equally considered approaches. The purpose is to understand what makes each proposition distinctive, rather than bring every collection into a single aesthetic.
For visitors and buyers, the invitation is to look beyond the image of a collection: consider a material, understand a finish and discuss the decisions behind a design. Participating brands and the arrangements for discovering their collections will be announced by the organisers.
Do you develop fashion or accessories manufactured in France? Introduce your brand, key products and manufacturing locations. An enquiry starts a conversation with the organising team; it is not confirmation of selection or a space booking.
