Amidst the continuous cycles of evolution within the intimate fashion industry, every link of the supply chain is actively redefining its value and role.

As a vital component of the global Interfilière exhibition series, Interfilière Shanghai remains firmly anchored within this international framework, serving as a professional trade and exchange platform with a global reach—centred on materials, design, technology, and market demand.

Interfilière Shanghai 2026—the International Exhibition for Intimate Fashion Materials and Accessories—has now been officially scheduled. It will take place from October 13 to 14, 2026, at the Shanghai Exhibition Centre. Moving forward, Interfilière Shanghai will present the key themes of this new era in the intimate fashion industry through an even more clearly defined content structure.

Within this ecosystem, Interfilière Shanghai delivers critical value by bridging global trend research with Asian industry practices, thereby facilitating effective exchange and synergy among resources from diverse markets and different stages of the supply chain—all on a single unified platform.

These dedicated zones will explore various dimensions—including trend research, material innovation, technological evolution, design methodologies, and cultural expression—to showcase the core directions currently capturing the industry’s attention. 

These features include the “Trend Forum”—curated by global trend expert Jos Berry—which focuses on forward-looking expressions in materials and design; the industry-innovation-driven “Interfeel’ Awards”; the “Green Planet” zone, which interprets international sustainability standards; the “Women’s New Picks: 24-Hour Wardrobe Lab,” which explores real-life scenarios for women; the “TechFuture Hub,” focusing on digitalization and technological evolution; and the “Traditional Chinese Colors: Cultural & Art Exhibition,” rooted in Eastern aesthetics.

The aforementioned elements, combined with a series of “Diverse Industry Seminars” and “Professional Workshops,” form a comprehensive content framework. Through curated presentations and a professional selection of products, the on-site experience is specifically designed to serve brand decision-makers as well as design and R&D teams. Moving beyond mere product displays, the event offers industry professional perspectives that are both actionable and scalable.

Notably, “Interfilière Insights” serves as a pivotal, year-round content platform. Aimed at decision-makers and innovators within the intimate apparel and fashion industry, this initiative utilises formats such as field visits, specialised workshops, and trend tours to focus on design inspiration, material innovation, supply chain structures, and future technological pathways, thereby providing deeper and more forward-looking industry perspectives.

Concurrently, an expanding global roadshow program will generate increased opportunities for international collaboration. Leveraging Interfilière’s extensive global network, the event—in partnership with worldwide collaborators—will tour key markets across Asia and beyond. This initiative aims to foster inter-regional industry exchange and resource alignment, assisting participating companies in steadily broadening their global horizons and securing new international partnerships.

The “Major Buyer Program” constitutes a vital component of our visitor recruitment strategy. Leveraging the collaborative network of the global Interfilière exhibition series, the show extends targeted invitations to brands, channel partners, and purchasing heads in key markets. Furthermore, during the pre-show phase, we engage in detailed needs assessments and strategic matching to ensure that all attending visitors possess a clear and relevant business background.

Beyond on-site matchmaking at the exhibition venue, Interfilière Shanghai also facilitates deeper engagement opportunities between select key buyers and premier manufacturing enterprises through its “Exclusive Factory Visit Program.”

Centred on real-world production environments, this program enables buyers to visit factory sites following the exhibition, offering them a firsthand, intuitive understanding of the manufacturers’ R&D capabilities, production workflows, and quality management systems.

To date, the booth renewal rate for Interfilière Shanghai 2026 has already exceeded 30%, while inquiries regarding booth reservations and preliminary registration of interest remain actively underway.

Further details regarding exhibition zone layouts, event schedules, and visitor services will be released in subsequent announcements.
