Patternbank and The London Textile Fair  teamed up at London’s biggest textile event at the Business Design Centre in Islington in July 2015.  The fair was a huge success and reached capacity, with 370 exhibitors taking part at this seasons event. TLTF was once again split into three industry sections(Textiles, Print Studios, Accessories & Trim) making it incredibly easy for buyers to meet and view exhibitors new seasons collections.

Once again Patternbank were pleased to partner with the fair to curate and build the inspirational trend forum areas for Autumn/Winter 16/17. Here they focused on four over arching macro trends for the mills to channel their fabrics through – Atmospheric Form / Gothic History / Crafted Texture / Electric.

For more information on the above fabric mills please visit The London Textile Fair site or download the magazine here.
