This exploration of trends will continue with the contribution of WGSN - an international leader in market analyses and research on trends in the design and fashion sectors. As in previous editions the conceptual categories emerging from the research will be given an exhibition space, selecting a number of objects exhibited in the fair that are seen as embodying the various style paradigms identified by the study.
