Those of you who regularly read my posts will know that there is a (relatively) new Turkish Trade Center in New York. It opened in 2018 spring in Manhattan and is host to a variety of Turkish textile, apparel, rug, and business contracting firms.

Turkish textiles are exploding. The home textiles industry in my home country has never been stronger. Thanks to a variety of reasons and strategic decisions, an incredible amount of high-quality textiles are coming to Europe and the United States.

Yes, that’s correct. It might not be the best time of the year to enjoy Frankfurt and Hannover, but there were two fairs that I really wanted to attend and I simply had to go. I was glad that I did!

İlk kez 2000 yılında lanse edilen Première Vision, moda profesyonellerine en yeni kültür ve yenilikleri hızlı bir şekilde taşımak için çalışmaya devam ediyor. Yaratıcı tekstiller ve yüzey tasarımları açısından en iyi uluslararası etkinliklerden biri.

Launched in 2000, Première Vision continues to work to bring fashion professionals up to speed on the latest in culture and innovation. It is one of the top international shows for creative textiles and surface designs. There are seminars and speakers (Smart Talks) and the whole event has an attractive educational vibe that I just love.

As many of you know, I am lucky enough to be able to attend a fair amount of incredible industry events every year, but I always seem to have my eye on one in particular: The Summer Fancy Food Show that hits New York every summer.
