The Creative Hub Interfilière: A first edition weaving a responsible future for fashion

For the first edition of The Creative Hub at the Salon Interfilière, taking place from January 18 to 20, 2025 at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, Made in Town is supporting this innovative project, which redefines the contours of creative, responsible and innovative sourcing. This space has been designed as a laboratory of exploration to connect designers, manufacturers and service providers around the major challenges facing the textile and fashion accessories industry.

A collective and sustainable vision

The Creative Hub Interfilière brings together players committed to textile innovation and know-how around three major themes: creativity, responsibility and innovation. This space highlights innovative solutions to today’s challenges: sustainable sourcing, new production processes and the valorization of raw materials.

The approach is to integrate a diversity of know-how and trades, covering subjects such as innovative fibers and components, new coloring methods, upcycling and the circular economy, knitting, to name but a few… The Creative Hub Interfilière is not just a physical space, but an immersive, collaborative experience that brings together creativity, vision and action in a collective dynamic, the starting point for new collaborations and sustainable exchanges.

A space dedicated to meeting, exchanging and networking

The Creative Hub Interfilière was conceived as much more than just an exhibition space: it’s a veritable crossroads where creativity, innovation and responsibility meet. Located at the heart of the Interfilière trade show, this space has been designed to embody a hub of exchange and inspiring dialogue between exhibitors, visitors and experts. Exhibitors, carefully selected for their innovative approach, present their unique visions through modules that invite visitors to reflect on their own experiences.

Beyond the exhibition modules, The Creative Hub Interfilière is positioned as a veritable nerve center for meetings and exchanges within the show. It’s the place to be for all those involved in the industry, whether for informal discussions or structured events such as conferences, book signings or specific presentations. Samples and resources shared on site play a key role in facilitating exchanges, while scheduled talks allow immersion in current trends and tomorrow’s innovations. Favoring networking, this unique space connects visitors and exhibitors, stimulating ideas and encouraging the creation of collaborations to build a more creative, innovative and responsible textile industry. With an atmosphere conducive to interaction, and tools such as the private online club launched during the event, The Creative Hub Interfilière has established itself as an incubator of ideas, where every encounter can give rise to concrete opportunities for the future of fashion.

Two exclusive signings to mark the event

Two highlights of The Creative Hub Interfilière spotlight committed and visionary publications:

Rosalie Mann, founder of the No More Plastic Foundation and creator of the Humann Prize, with her book “No More Plastics: How plastic ruins our health”, which explores concrete, innovative solutions to reduce our dependence on plastics in fashion and beyond.

Dario Casalini, founder of Slow Fiber, director of Maglificio Po and Oscalito with “Un Avenir à Tisser”, an inspiring reflection on how to build a sustainable future by rethinking our modes of textile production and our interactions with natural resources.

These signings offer visitors a unique opportunity to exchange views directly with the authors on key themes of responsible innovation and ethical practices in the fashion industry.

This first edition of The Creative Hub lays the foundations for a new vision of fashion sourcing: collaborative, responsible and forward-looking. Stay tuned to discover more initiatives and extend the experience through our new private online club.
