Exhibit for the general public: the creativity, technique and know-how of fashion, textile and design companies

Two futuristic bubbles outside the Bourse de Commerce will present to the public and professionals a life-size exhibit, a window breathing fresh air on creative French fashion and design, the result of designer-manufacturer partnerships proposed by Tech & Design, piloted by R3Ilab and IFM. Clothing, accessories, furniture, table arts, outdoor items, ideas for creative and industrial research will be, more than ever, on the program:





Tech & Design: savoir-faire technologique industriel et imaginaire d’un designer/créateur 10 manufacturers + 10 designers = 10 partnerships

  • 1 pilot program associating the know-how of a company with the imagination of a designer for new products, services and solutions
  • Technological innovation + intangible innovation = competitivity
  • Accompanying the commercialization of innovations
  • This model experience of the R3ilab* illustrates the capacity and performance of creative industries to respond to consumer needs

*R3ilab: since 2009 the Network for Intangible Innovation in Industry contributes to the strategic reflection and evolution of the entire French industry through experimental programs developed at the heart of 8 poles of regional excellence with 500 expert manufacturers as partners.

IFM: post-graduate programs in creation

With strong experience in training managers for the clothing-textile industry, the INSTITUTE FRANÇAIS DE LA MODE has developed, over 10 years, a post-graduate program of fashion creation which has now been extended to accessories.

These international programs, true 'talent incubators', train designers and creative directors at the crossroads of creative and industrial worlds. The graduates of these programs join the creative studios of prestigious brands such as Burberry, Celine, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Givenchy, Hermès, Philippe Starck or create their own line of clothing or accessories.
