Swiss Jeans Freak X Candiani Collaboration

Ruedi Karrer, also known as the Swiss Jeans Freak is the founder of the world’s first independent Jeans Museum and a prominent member of the denim community.

Ruedi has partnered with Candiani Denim to realize a lifelong dream of creating a limited-edition collection of 60 pieces. A special collaboration and passion project to commemorate his 60th Birthday, the jeans were unveiled at BLUEZONE during the current MUNICH FABRIC START in September along with a promotional short film celebrating Ruedi’s unwavering passion and devotion to denim.

The limited-edition collection was designed by Ruedi, engineered by Candiani and manufactured 100% in Italy by IMJIT. The revenue from sales will contribute to the development of the Jeans Museum in Zurich.

BEYOND AWARE – Global trend

BEYOND AWARE, the overarching trend theme for Autumn 20/21 analyses the multi-layered levels of awareness on different planes of perception – personal, global, regional, mental, rational, emotional and transcendental. It’s all about self-awareness and contemplating the status quo. BEYOND AWARE stands for a new way of thinking and rethinking that goes far beyond our previous understanding of fashion.
It’s about more than just fashion!
BEYOND AWARE calls for the observation and very responsive reaction to the changes in consumer and clothing habits – one that is dynamic, attentive and bold. Combined with the demand for change in trends as well as values, which is currently manifested in two ideological concepts. On one hand is Bold Expressions presents an individual, very enthusiastic lifestyle and fashion style. On the other hand is Forward Ethics for conscious, responsible consumption. Two very different concepts that polarise and attract attention. The affirmation of BEYOND AWARE.

SECTIONS

Fabrics
Winter fabrics will feature woolly, new-twist classics, comfort and aesthetics coupled with modern casualness. Most manufacturers are now focusing their collections on sustainably produced goods and processes. Sustainability has become a natural part of the upstream stage. New consumer awareness and transparency have led to fundamental shifts. Both in fabrics as well as colours trends, not least in the styles expected. More than 800 international fabric suppliers hosted in the FABRICS areas at MUNICH FABRIC START will demonstrate the versatile and individual ways this trend can be understood and translated. Sometimes progressive, classic or sporty, sometimes masculine or with new femininity. Often with a voluminous, soft finish. But always with the greatest possible lightness.
Additionals
Perfectly coordinated buttons, striking zippers, decorative rhinestone appliqués, individually designed labelling. The latest creations for buttons, ribbons, decorative stones, fasteners, lace, embroidery and labels will be presented by over 200 leading international suppliers of additionals and accessories for Autumn Winter 20/21 in the ADDITIONALS Area of MUNICH FABRIC START.

Design Studios
Inspiring print designs and creative energy are provided by the most important international textile designers and trend agencies hosted in the DESIGN STUDIOS at MUNICH FABRIC START on the firstFLOOR. Setting impulses for future prints, always in search of the special and truly unique.

SOURCING Area
The launch of the SOURCING Area in the new Hall 8 of the recently opened Business Club Munich opposite the MOC provides direct connection to MUNICH FABRIC START and BLUEZONE. Over 80 international apparel manufacturers and producers will be showcasing their services for womenswear, menswear, accessories, corporate, couture and tailored segments among others, at this independent and suitable space thus meeting the growing demand for manufacturing services.

‘The idea of this new segment is based on creating an inspiring and efficient atmosphere in a contemporary and high-quality setting. And thus also a unique environment for network communication and work. With the new SOURCING area we can now map the textile supply chain at one location in Munich.’
Frank Junker, Creative Director MUNICH FABRIC START

The exhibiting companies include established manufacturers from Portugal, Tunisia, Morocco, Italy, Macedonia, Greece, Turkey, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Hong Kong among others.

ReSOURCE
Awareness of ecologically sustainable certificates and seals of quality is on the rise. With ReSOURCE, MUNICH FABRIC START has established a broad sourcing platform that provides sustainable solutions for innovative and future-oriented production processes. Supported and established by experts, the forum offers concrete solutions informing visitors about relevant developments and the latest standards through a series of seminars and lectures, in a bid to bring together potential cooperation partners. In Area K3/4 of Hall 4, ReSOURCE will be showcasing over 600 innovative articles certified and/or produced in an environmentally friendly way.

In the emerging circular economy of the future, nothing is treated as waste. What is left over from one process becomes input to another, so keeping it circualting. Refibra technology gives a second life to pre-consumer cotton waste from garment manufacturing – which would otherwise be sent to landfills or incinerated – by upcycling it into brand new cellulosic fiber materials for clothing and home products. In a special installation, Lenzing will showcase closed-loop recycling with its complete production process for TENCEL™ x REFIBRA™ at the ReSOURCE area.

Through personal discussions on site, visitors can learn key details about the respective certificates and seals directly from the responsible certification organisations and institutes. The entire portfolio of innovations shown in the ReSOURCE Area is available all year round on the new website:

The ALL RELATED Collab Project

In the ever-changing denim industry, weaving mills, producers and manufacturers are now more than ever in direct contact with consumers and need to develop their marketing and communication skills in a way akin to jeans brands. Until recently, an invisible border separated the players in the jeans industry from end consumers. Today’s open-minded and curious customers now demand transparency not only from brands, but also from producers. At the same time, brands are transferring more and more responsibility. It is precisely in this interactivity that the new connection for interaction with end consumers lies.
Blockchain, transparent distribution concepts and social media together build new standards that the industry itself must set. Weaving mills and manufacturers are part of an ALL RELATED chain of global value shifts in society.

‘With BLUEZONE as one of the largest international denim trade fairs, a platform has been created that brings together experts who are invited to pass on their know-how. This is where networking takes on a new dimension. New communication channels, transparent production chains and changing consumer behaviour present the denim industry with fundamental challenges, but at the same time also offer great opportunities for a future-oriented BLUE Industry’
Sebastian Klinder, Managing Director MUNICH FABRIC START

“With the ALL RELATED COLLAB Project we go one step further. This project is an unprecedented initiative whereby 23 BLUEZONE exhibitors have joined forces with designers to create an innovative vision of denim.”
Lucie Germser, Head of Communication & Design,
Monsieur-T.

The ALL RELATED COLLAB PROJECT at BLUEZONE is a central showcase of how future collaborations can and will look like. This powerful initiative pools creativity, cooperation, transparency and responsibility. International designers, fabric suppliers, additionals manufacturers and producers have split up into 8 teams and realised their vision of a sustainable denim silhouette.

ALL RELATED – DESIGNER LOOKS

Designers, weavers, producers and washers work together to create trend-related outfits in a transparent and eco-friendly manufacturing process. Each designer selects one of the eight trend themes and creates an outfit with their own unique interpretation of fabrics, treatments and trims.

ALL RELATED – TRENDS

LONG LASTING : A highlight for durable and slow denim products that helps to reduce over consumption.

DENIM BORDERLINE : A fashion territory where denim and non-denim shake hands.

URBAN ZULU : Tribal and African accents in an urban environment.

SARTORIAL ANGLE : On a journey to exact, tailor-made denims – where tradition meets the future.

JUVENILE AWKWARD : Generation Z has its own beauty codes, especially when it comes to design & denim, discover the beauty of awkward aesthetics.

ROCKERS DELIGHT : You thought the rock’n’roll taste is only a has-been? Luxury brands prove that it’s not true.

TEXT ME : Denim with a message, a message that is LOUD! Handwritten, printed, painted, woven or embroidered – make your statements!

GENDER FREEDOM : Ladies denim for men, men’s denim for women. The new future for gender freedom.

Sustainability Has Become an Ethical Mindset at Officina+39

Inspired by artisanal tradition in Italy, Officina+39 is an innovative chemical company based in Bella, Italy. It is the result of 30 years of experience in research and chemical application in the textile sector. Officina+39 focuses on the development and implementation of new and sustainable ideas for the denim industry and environmentally friendly dyeing processes.

Officina means workshop in Italian, but it also stands for passion, innovation, sustainable practices, transparency and social responsibility. Looking to the future, the company combines tradition with modern products and technologies. Their latest process developments will be presented on the 3rd to the 5th of September at KEYHOUSE.

TRUSTAINABLE™: Respect and commitment become an ethical mindset. In production control, Officina+39 ensures the use of less hazardous chemicals, minimizing the impact of surrounding environments, recycling waste, reducing power usage and water conservation. Officina+39 sees one of the greatest challenges in creating transparency. That’s what TRUSTAINABLE ™ stands for.


NEBUDYE: WATER-FREE Vintage Colouring

NEBUDYE is an innovative process used in combination with selected dyes to create original vintage colouring. This makes NEBUDYE one of the world’s first waterless dyeing processes with the nebulization systems. So far, only a non-uniform appearance was possible with the fogging systems (comparable to the cold pigmentation CPD). NEBUDYE opens up new possibilities in textile dyeing technology. NEBUDYE guarantees a perfect penetration into the garments and ensures a uniform vintage style.


SMART BLEACH: Water-saving bleaching technology

SMART BLEACH is an innovative bleaching technology for Nebulization systems. This innovative technology was specially developed to replace the traditional chlorine (or potassium permanganate) used in denim bleaching in washing machines. By using SMART BLEACH with misting systems, it is possible to bleach indigo denim and black denim to reduce water consumption by 90%.
SMART BLEACH can be used in combination with NOVASTONE NEBU, a new enzyme certified by Novozymes DeniSafe®, which ensures the safe use of enzymes in new low-pressure washing machines with mist technology. SMART BLEACH can also be done with a new biodegradable REDUCER KM ECO neutralizer.


You’re invited to attend MUNICH FABRIC START, where more than 1000 suppliers will present more than 1800 collections for Fabrics and Additionals for Autumn.Winter 20/21.

Remotely from the vibrant Lisbon scene he accompanies artists with his palette of electronic instruments to develop their sound as well as crafting soundscapes to an array of bespoke needs. “Future Thread”, “Plastic Ocean”, “Cyan Fire”… his tracks’ message is all about Denim & Sustainability.

Soorty: Innovative and Sustainable

Soorty, as a pioneer in technological advances, resource-saving processes as well as state of the art production methods and denim innovations, presents a range of new technological developments for the new Autumn.Winter 20/21 season. The Pakistani denim manufacturer has already received the HighTex Award, the innovation prize at MUNICH FABRIC START, for their overall strategic, responsible and sustainable corporate policy.

One of the key topics at Soorty is FIX-D, one of the world’s first waterless textile dyeing technologies. FIX-D was developed at the NASDA Innovation Lab and expanded with Soorty Denim Mill & Soorty Garment Factories. FIX-D ensures a sustainable and environmentally friendly finishing process due to extremely fast dyeing solutions.
In addition, Soorty offers a range of timeless classics with authentic laser-based vintage washes.
Also in a vintage look are rustic denim types as ‘Neo Pioneers‘ with classic twill weave in various winter white colours, from clear white to elegant ecru.

In a new collaboration with Lola Poelio, the denim specialist launch the collection Lola x Roxy for Soorty, with a new approach to the recycling of textile remnants. Playful, colourful and in a young look. The capsule collection is made only from resourced materials, wastage fabrics and rejected samples as well as other resourced materials.

The focus for Autumn.Winter 20/21 is also on recycling. As the owner of a state-of-the-art recycling facility, Soorty increasingly also uses leftover industrial waste within its product range. The recycled denim fabrics from Soorty have different blending ratios that can range from 5% to 25%, and in individual cases far more. This results in fabrics with various material combinations, weight classes and elasticity levels that meet the target groups’ specific demands in terms of look and feel of the new collection.

New Entry at BLUEZONE: Metal Trim Specialist Dorlet!

We are happy to announce that Dorlet, one of the leading European additional suppliers with a strong focus on metal and leather goods, will be complementing the BLUEZONE trims portfolio in September.

Founded in Paris in 1928, the family run business has a rich industrial heritage and a unique know-how passed down from generation to generation.
Initially specialising in the manufacturing and sale of hats and millinery supplies, Dorlet changed to selling lining materials for clothing in 1946, and then changed in a roundabout way 1958 to manufacturing fabric bags and waistbands, and finally in 1967 to sewing threads.

Since the 1980’s, Dorlet has been shifting their focus to devising, designing, developing, manufacturing, creating and selling metal products for ready-to-wear, fashion, sportswear, denim, workwear, shoes and leather goods. In addition, the product range is rounded off by nylon, wood and cotton accessories.

Brass, copper, alloy, iron and stainless steel provide the raw materials for Dorlet’s creations, with the option to tailor-make and personalized products: CAD design with customer logo, colouring and production of a 3D resin prototype are the beginning stages, followed by producing a mold as soon as the shape, material and functionality of the product have been approved.

Carried out in close cooperation with the customer, Dorlet’s design process provides a great freedom in low-cost operations and tests to respond to its customers’ stylistic ideas as well as to their technical and environmental constraints.

Metal trims are certified Oko-tex Standard 100 and complied with REACH regulation.

Dorlet operates out of three continents, Europa, Africa and Asia, close to major textile and leather good production sites, thus being able to provide logistical and technical support. Real-time management, automated stock maintenance (SAP) and 3D prototyping within 48 hours carried out in France are certainly further USPs to be mentioned.

During our next edition of BLUEZONE, Dorlet will be showcasing their latest collection and novelties in Munich. Looking forward to welcome this promissing new entry to the BLUEZONE!
