HISTORY

Pooling the early trends for fabrics, findings and colours in the coming season this forum serves as a valuable and comprehensive source of inspiration for trade visitors at the earliest possible point in time. 2015, WGSN has been rounding off the portfolio as leading international trend forecaster and official trend partner of MUNICH FABRIC START with exclusive trend presentations and trend experts at VIEW.For Spring.Summer 20 information on the latest fabrics, colours and stylings will be provided by leading trend offices such as Peclers Paris, Laufer Fashion Consulting and The Trend Bunker.This means VIEW has developed from an exclusive sector-only get-together into a regular, key date for many buyers and designers from high-end, ready-to-wear producers and renowned companies that are smart enough to capitalise on the earliest date possible for the seasonal kick-off – as an important informative and inspirational basis.

In December 2017 VIEW set the next milestone: As many as four major renowned textile agencies present their portfolio for the first time. Alongside the textile agencies Max Müller, Thomas Geiger and Püttmann Tex-Research also exhibited at VIEW for the first time.

VIEW Premium Selection was launched in 2008 to provide the sector with initial collection develop-ments and material trends for pre-view thereby prompting an inspiring exchange as an early kick-off for the new season in an exclusive setting. Since then VIEW – as a pre-view event to MUNICH FABRIC START – has twice yearly presented a carefully curated selection of pre-collections from internatio-nal top-notch weaving mills and findings manufacturers. With its strategically early dates VIEW quickly became an established fixture in the industry’s agenda at the beginning of the season. The constant demand for more exhibition space paired with a steady rise in visitors from Germany and its neighbou-ring countries soon saw VIEW reach its capacity limits. In summer 2014 VIEW set a new milestone: the move from Prisco Haus to Munich’s Verkehrsmuseum (MVG Museum) provided the space needed to showcase some 300 collections – twice as many as in previous seasons. In the wake of this move the ADDITIONALS and DENIM & SPORTSWEAR segments were also extended, presented as inde-pendent segments from then on. Especially for the DENIM & SPORTSWEAR segment, VIEW offers an additional presentation date for showcasing the ever changing innovations denim brands now undergo. Winter 2014 saw VIEW incorporate the DESIGN STUDIOS segment thereby extending its portfolio to include individual prints and patterns. At the same time, the Trendforum was staged for the first time.
