Personal protective equipment, smart fashion, outdoor fabrics, or modern workwear are both smart and tough. The curated special exhibition "Performance Apparels on Stage" in hall 9.0 shows live what your high-end materials are capable of – and in which apparel applications they can be put to the ultimate test.
Warming, cooling, protecting or tracking: In the special show Performance Apparels on Stage in Hall 9.0, Techtextil presents functional clothing in a live setting. Innovative wearables are on stage – worn, tested and ready to be experienced in action.
In a dynamic show, exhibitors and their development partners demonstrate how technical textiles perform in wearable end products. Each outfit tells a story about its function: What innovative features are found in the latest wearables? Where are new areas of application opening up? And how do textile solutions prove themselves under extreme conditions?
Whether smart textiles, outdoor textiles, fashion or personal protective equipment – here it becomes clear what modern functional clothing can achieve. A jury of experts curates the most outstanding exhibits and brings the best innovations to the stage.
A fashion show of a special kind – with the focus on performance.
