China'S Popular Fabrics In Spring And Summer 2022

With the popularity of quality consumption and green consumption, the demand for fashion, quality, high-end, intelligent, functional and environmental protection products is growing. Driven by scientific and technological innovation, textile product design, in a more open, systematic and intelligent cultural environment, integrates hard core technology and cultural connotation, and develops towards a more collaborative, diversified, comprehensive and intelligent direction, creating a strong driving force to promote the high-quality development of the industry.

The twill design of "from the misty feeling of drizzle in succession"; the environmental protection design of recording the contemporary aesthetic appearance and life attitude "; the new material of octagonal special polyester with acetic acid cross-section adopted in" a trace of coolness in hot summer " On January 27, nearly 4000 fabric products from more than 400 excellent textile enterprises were presented in the 2021 China International fabric design competition and the 45th (spring and summer 2022) China popular fabrics shortlisted evaluation meeting.

Whether it is the diversified innovation of color, pattern, material, process and technology, or the rich terminal application of men's formal wear, fashionable women's wear, sportswear, casual wear, jeans and shirts, this review meeting, with its huge bearing, has always conveyed the creative design concept of organic integration of cultural value, aesthetic value, technical value and commercial value, as well as textile products riyifeng The value connotation of PEI.

Li Binhong, director of the national textile product development center, served as the chief judge of the current evaluation panel, from China Textile Information Center, China Fashion Color Association, Beijing Institute of fashion, Fangying design studio, Beidi Bairui commerce and trade (Beijing) Co., Ltd., Beijing white collar Fashion Co., Ltd., Beijing lining Sports Goods Co., Ltd., and toread Holding Group Co., Ltd Experts and judges of China Women's University jointly conducted a strict evaluation from the dimensions of fashion, innovation and commerce. At the meeting, Li Xiaofei, deputy editor in chief of "prospect of textile and garment trends", interpreted the "trend of Chinese textile fabrics in spring and summer 2022" published by China Textile Information Center and national textile product development center, which provided the review basis for the jury.

What is the route and direction of textile product design and development after 2020? Experts know what you see, let's listen!

Li Binhong, director of national textile products development center

The overall level of the participating products is very high, which is mainly reflected in the following aspects: first, the number and variety of products participating in the evaluation are very rich, covering a wide range of professional fields. Second, there are a lot of new minimally invasive products on the basis of basic models, especially in product detail design and quality improvement. Third, the color matching and pattern design progress is obvious, the fashion trend matching degree is very high. Fourth, the eco-friendly raw materials such as regenerated polyester, regenerated nylon, dyed polyester and regenerated cellulose fiber are widely used. However, the outstanding products in the three dimensions of scientific and technological innovation, design creativity and ecological environmental protection are still slightly insufficient. In view of the diversity of product innovation and evaluation dimensions, the selection of gold, silver and bronze awards in each competition is not only the most heated part discussed by the jury, but also the most difficult time to choose. This also means that we still have a lot of things to do in helping textile enterprises improve their comprehensive strength in product development.

In general, first of all, the design of eco-friendly products achieves the balance between technical value and commercial value. For example, the gradual transition jacquard pattern of recycled polyester fiber is realized by jacquard weaving process, or the surface of knitted fabric is treated with light sanding, which makes the surface "cashless" but delicate and glossy; the combination of UCOS? And stretchy silk? Achieves the organic unity of elasticity, handle and environmental protection; polylactic acid fiber is widely used, adding modal, XLA and other materials to the fabric The feel of the hand has been greatly improved.

Secondly, conventional fiber redesign improves the added value of the product. For example, polyester through imitation camouflage pattern jacquard, polyester mesh flocking three-dimensional embroidery and press finishing, changing the cross-section of polyester acetate like silk luster, etc., different processing methods break through the traditional combination, which has become an effective way to enhance the added value of fabrics. In addition, the bionic moss made of mulberry silk and recycled polyester is natural, vivid and aesthetic; pure cotton yarn reflects the high-end quality of glossy and bony feeling by strengthening twisting and high-density knitting; the knitted fabric obtained by spinning Superfine Merino wool and nylon core spun yarn is smooth without itching, full of elasticity and better shape retention, and the composite wool has the characteristics of moisture absorption and perspiration, which is more suitable for light sports Scene.

On the whole, the development of women's fabrics has strong popularity, especially the effect of color, texture and tissue richness. On the contrary, the development of men's clothing fabrics tends to be relatively conservative in fashion, which is less attractive to the emerging major consumer groups of post-90s and z-era. In sports and leisure fabrics, more and more functional fibers are used in the entries, such as cellulose fiber, recyclable polyester polyamide fiber, bio based fiber, dye fiber, etc. Through this product, we can see that the concept of sustainability is increasingly popular in the industry and enterprises. Sustainability is a closed-loop concept. Multi fiber ratio and complex ingredients may not be a good thing for sustainability. On the one hand, it will lead to cost increase. On the other hand, due to the lack of clear understanding of fiber mixing and utilization by enterprises, more in-depth discussion is needed for the degradation and recycling in the later stage. In sports and leisure fabrics, sports wool is more and more widely used. It has good performance in moisture absorption, perspiration and heat preservation. However, this kind of area is rarely used in China. The needs of consumer groups exist. Enterprises should guide consumers in propaganda to develop this blank market.

Li Xiaofei, deputy editor in chief of the trend of textile and clothing

Through the evaluation, we can see that the participating enterprises can consciously develop products according to the market trend. For example, for some basic models, enterprises will choose to use new materials to improve quality. In terms of pattern and color, enterprises can appropriately use popular trends to enrich product content. In addition, due to the epidemic situation, many fabrics have abandoned the basic materials and used functional and environmental protection materials with antibacterial and sustainable aspects. From the perspective of color, fabric enterprises have been preparing for "internal circulation". They have updated the color of fabrics based on their understanding of season and domestic market. Due to the impact of the epidemic on consumption, in the next stage, the development of fabric products may be relatively conservative, and more enterprises will choose to upgrade the original high-quality products. For example, they will choose materials and styles that can be freely combined, so as to realize the practicability of fabrics in many occasions.

One of the highlights of this year's fabrics is the wide application of new materials, which can be found everywhere in the fabrics. For example, graphene can be seen in many fabrics, and there are many applications of other new materials. At the same time, the fabric style is also more diversified, we can see that fabric enterprises have a good grasp of the trend of fashion. In addition, in the pattern and color, also showed new highlights. The next step of fabric research and development will pay more attention to fashion, technology and environmental protection, and fabric enterprises will actively combine these elements, so as to achieve better use of fabrics in various categories and scenes.

Fang Ying, creative director of Fang Ying design studio

The products in this review emphasize more on functionality and sense of science and technology, which is in line with the current market consumption. Now people pay more attention to health, more and more people begin to devote themselves to leisure and outdoor sports, which directly drives the development of functional fabrics. The application of functional fabrics not only increases the added value of fabric products, but also reflects people's pursuit of comfortable and convenient lifestyle and the protection of their own health and safety. Nowadays, when choosing clothes, many consumers first consider whether the fabric has sterilization function, whether it is fast drying, and then consider whether it is beautiful. This may be the trend of future fabrics - putting functionality and comfort in a more important position. For enterprises, the development of functional fabrics should be based on raw materials, strive to show the harmony and balance between technology and nature, and meet people's needs for nature, comfort, beauty, health and fashion.

Wang Yutao, design director of Beidi Bairui Trading (Beijing) Co., Ltd

In this review activity, I saw that many fabrics were applied to the new yarn, and the application of color was also commendable. It's a great pleasure for designers and I'm willing to try these fabrics in the summer. Nowadays, a series of problems such as the global greenhouse effect have aroused more and more attention. Environmental protection has become an urgent task, and environmental recycled fabrics have become the design direction that can not be ignored. Such a green concept should be implanted into the thinking of textile enterprises, rather than simply "shouting slogans". The upstream and downstream enterprises in the textile industry have the responsibility to promote the environmentally friendly recycled fiber. In addition, in the post epidemic era, people pay more and more attention to health, and the development of antibacterial products is also one of the most important directions in the textile industry.

Fu Kui, design and art director of Beijing white collar Fashion Co., Ltd

In this review meeting, I saw that many fabrics have a cross-border nature, which may belong to the category of casual wear and also belong to the fashion women's wear series. There are more and more fabrics with such elements. In addition, the overall style of the fabric is relatively simple and elegant, which also caters to the current consumer psychology. For the future development direction of fabrics, first of all, environmental protection products will be more popular. The research and development of plant dyeing and other fabrics will naturally show a rising trend. Another is to add some anti-bacterial, anti-virus concept of fabric will be popular. In terms of design style, due to the epidemic situation, people have a deeper yearning for comfort and freedom, and for fabrics, they are more comfortable and comfortable. In the next 2-3 years, the boundary between formal and casual fabrics will be blurred. Leisure elements will be added to formal clothes and formal clothes will be added to casual clothes. The combination of the two will increase the scope of people's attendance.

Liu Rui, manager of clothing R & D Department of Beijing lining sporting goods Co., Ltd

From the women's clothing fabrics participating in the evaluation, we feel more and more rich style changes. On the one hand, some women's fabrics have a strong sense of decoration. The gold and silver wire creates a metallic color, and the jacquard shows the relief feeling. The fabric is very expressive. On the other hand, some basic structure fabrics, such as crepe de Chine, satin, serge, etc., are plain colors, but through surface micro treatment, they have both a sense of drape, a comfortable hand feel and a firm body bone. They are no longer hard or soft, but have a good balance between the soft and hard fabrics. In the sports category, printing, jacquard and fitting are combined into one, which no longer pursues functionality, but also improves the appearance performance of fabrics, which is full of fashion sense. It is expected that in the future development of fabrics, the combination of various processes will be more, which may create many unexpected effects. In addition, the high elastic quality fabric is also an important development direction. For example, the fabric with spandex content of more than 20% will not only appear in sportswear, but also achieve rapid penetration in women's wear category, because it is very suitable for creating many special shapes in women's wear, and also has comfortable experience; secondly, it is gradually introduced into casual wear and sportswear, in some need of elasticity When used, there may be a breakthrough style.

It can be seen from this competition that enterprises have made a lot of positive feedback on the impact of the epidemic. On the one hand, chitosan fiber, graphene modified fiber and other antibacterial and antiviral functions have many applications, but which really suits consumers still needs more positive guidance from the perspective of testing standards. On the other hand, many enterprises have strengthened the cultivation of "internal skills". They have made innovations in fiber raw materials, yarn, weaving, dyeing and finishing processing technology and combination methods, and pay more attention to the concept of ecological environment protection, improving comfort and durability at the same time. In the future, when consumption enters the post epidemic era, consumers' lifestyle and consumption habits will change significantly. Taking outdoor brands as an example, comfort and fashion will become the main ideas, while functionality will become the basic function. At the same time, online consumption has become a very important consumption mode, and there are obvious differences between online and offline. How to let consumers contact new products online and visualize the feel and function of products with the help of streaming media and new media needs us to explore together and gradually accept by consumers, so as to form an effective interaction between brands and consumers.

Fan Xiaohong, head of fashion and fashion design major of China Women's University

Judging from the products evaluated this year, more and more enterprises emphasize "function, fashion and technology" in R & D. Good clothes benefit from good materials. In terms of material integration, more and more enterprises start from the source yarn research and development, through functional, recycled fiber and other blended yarn, so that the product performance has been significantly improved. In the direction of 2022 development, affected by the epidemic situation, while maintaining the original state, I think we should pay more attention to comfort type, consumer psychology, functional protection and other major directions in R & D. In the research and development of light weight in spring and summer, the demand for moisture absorption and perspiration, antibacterial, wrinkle removal and cooling is particularly prominent. At the same time, the development and utilization of protection function will keep a continuous heat.

Throughout the competition, there are many highlights of the fabric. First of all, fibers are more diversified, and there are various functional fibers in the combination of fibers. At the same time, the manufacturing process of the fabric is more abundant. In the past, only jacquard or woven single process, but many of the fabrics in the evaluation combined with printing, dyeing, embroidery and other processes. Secondly, the fashion of fabric is still the highlight of this competition, and the products meet the future trend and the aesthetic needs of the times. Finally, the attributes of fabrics are diversified. It can be seen that enterprises have considered its more applicability when doing product research and development. I think the trend of fabric development in the future will be mainly reflected in three aspects: first, there will be a composite form of multiple processes, namely composite process; second, environmental protection and sustainability, that is, materials that are friendly to our own and environment will be widely used; third, in the face of the post epidemic era, all life styles, methods and even thinking modes are changing The fabric itself or clothing itself will also have a sudden change. In the future, the fashion degree of fabric is only the foundation, and it must also have various functions to enrich the connotation of fabric.
