05-23-2023

The 41st SPINEXPO Yarn Fair returns to Shanghai to actively promote the achievement of environmental goals for autumn and winter 2024/25 through product development innovation. The elegantly colored and new tactile yarns attract attention and show the optimism after the pandemic. Advances in yarn technology continue to raise the level of natural and synthetic yarns, bringing greater comfort, functionality and tactile feel to consumers. Yarn development combining health and sustainability was fully presented at SPINEXPO. The exhibition was divided into Hygge, Dough, Pigments and Miscegenation, with samples covering yarns and processes.

Key colors range from core classic colors to playful pink wax colors, paired with some dopamine mood brightness, comfortable and easy-going, balanced colors will be key to attracting cautious consumers. Sedate neutrals and dark tones satisfy the need for classic durability, while gender-inclusive colours make this season's colour palette more balanced, driven by a teenage market and optimism. Use color to design classic patterns such as checks, stripes and jacquards, and further enhance the visual effect with textured yarns and bold stitches.
