Blossom Première Vision show scheduled in Paris on June 4-5
After being held in December only for four years, Blossom Première Vision, the Parisian trade show dedicated to pre-collections for major labels, is back to two editions a year, with the next scheduled on June 4-5. The show will be held at the Carreau du Temple in Paris, and will focus on the AW26/27 season. The organisers have announced the presence of some 80 exhibitors, showcasing their collections of fabrics, leather, accessories, and specialised know-how. Blossom PV will feature for the first time a trend forum, giving a preview of the colour palette for winter 2027, as well as a 'laboratory for the exploration of future trends,' whose theme will be synaesthesia (the production of a sense impression relating to one sense or part of the body by stimulation of another sense). On June 4, the programme includes two new materials masterclasses, focusing respectively on fabric and on leather and skins. 'At a time when certainties have in some cases been blown away, this show will enable all industry players to gather together, find inspiration and inventiveness among highly selected exhibitors, and explore new features and services created to address their challenges,' said Florence Rousson, president of Première Vision's executive board, and general manager of the fashion division of GL Events, owner of Première Vision. Blossom PV was first held in 2016, and had not staged a summer edition since 2019. Initially because of the pandemic, and later because the organiser's main show, Première Vision Paris, moved its September edition forward to July, too close on the calendar to Blossom PV. Before Blossom PV in Paris, the organiser will stage the next edition of Denim Première Vision in Milan on May 21-22.
