French textile manufacturers meet with English buyers

The inaugural “The Best of French Fabrics” (BoFF) last year ensured a successful beginning for French fabrics being offered to the British market. Top names, new products and luxurious atmosphere generated positive feedback from exhibitors and visitors.

The Best of French Fabrics 2nd edition, where the French textile manufacturers meet with English buyers, was organized by the association of France Tissu Maille held in the heart of London in the prestigious Café Royal/Le Méridien Piccadilly Hotel on October 23rd 2007.

A French fabrics show-room presented the latest trends as well as the best in class French cloth weavers, knitters and lace makers’ collections. In addition to the static exhibition, the BoFF 2007 will also have conference on current market trends and the latest design concepts by one of the top five worldwide trend-setter offices.

This time the BoFF also invited key French manufacturers of eco-friendly textile with emphasis on organic cotton, linen, bamboo, lenpur and natural fibres to provide an ideal platform for sourcing high value-added textile products. Today, when environmental concerns are not only headline news, but also trendy, the French manufacturers are getting involved in ecological issues by producing more and more 100% bio fabrics.
