The engines of the next edition of MODTISSIMO are already roaring: on March 10th and 11th, the main Portuguese textile event will bring together all the Portuguese textile and clothing industry at Alfândega do Porto. Having in mind the success of the last edition, in September, the Portuguese exhibitors see Modtissimo as a unique opportunity to maintain face-to-face contact with customers and to present their collections in person, guaranteeing all security conditions.
After the success of the last edition, whose goals were exceeded, with the usual presence of Portuguese and foreign buyers – the latter even increased in numbers, representing 12.5% of the total visitors – MODTISSIMO is already laying the foundations for edition number 57. At a time when most international fairs postpone their editions or go digital, MODTISSIMO keeps its focus on presenting collections face-to-face, having postponed the fair from February to March.
Unlike the last few years, MODTISSIMO will take place in the same space as the September editions, the historic Alfândega do Porto building. The theme of this edition 57 is ‘Blossom’, representing the spring-summer season blooming and the collective hopes for a quick return to normal. At Alfândega do Porto, the entire line of the Portuguese textile industry will be represented, from raw materials to fabrics and knits, clothing manufacturing and fashion for adults and children.
