Texworld Apparel Sourcing Paris is preparing to reopen its doors for the autumn edition from 15 to 17 September 2025, in pavilions 2, 3 and 4 of the Paris-Le-Bourget Exhibition Center. Together with its Avantex and Leatherworld sectors, the event will offer a comprehensive overview for all fashion segments, from ready-to-wear to luxury, confirming itself as one of the most relevant B2B platforms for the international textile supply chain.
After the success of the February edition, the fair proposes the same exhibition layout, with a participation forecast that varies between 1,200 and 1,300 exhibitors. The choice of September dates responds to the need to better align with the calendars of European buyers, making sourcing even more effective. Confirmations from China, India, Turkey, South Korea, Taiwan and Hong Kong highlight Europe’s central role in a global context marked by trade uncertainties. Also significant is the presence of emerging producers from Central and Eastern Europe, including Armenia, Kyrgyzstan and Ukraine.
A layout designed to optimize sourcing
The event will be organized by thematic “universes”: Avantex, trend forums, conferences and service areas will focus in Pavilion 2, with a particular focus on women’s clothing and activewear. Pavilion 4 will host Leatherworld next to the Denim area, strengthening the link between raw material and finished product. Also worth mentioning is the area “Initiatives by Texworld”, at the entrance to Pavilion 4, where countries such as Turkey and India will showcase their textile and artisanal excellence.
Avantex: sustainability and innovation at the centre
The heart of innovation will be Avantex, the area dedicated to technologies and services for a more transparent and sustainable fashion industry. Among the most anticipated initiatives, the presentation of the results of the European Herewear project, which promotes the production of organic and local fabrics, and a rich program of conferences, workshops and round tables. There will be the Avantex Fashion Pitch, now in its eighth edition, which will see young talents compete in front of an international jury made up of fashion, technology and investment experts. Manifattura Foderami Cimmino will also be present at HALL 7.2 STAND L221.
