Cashmere World is an integrated trade event that covers the whole supply chain of the cashmere sector from the herds grazing on the high Mongolian plateau through the combing and processing of raw cashmere into the yarn that makes the wonderful sweaters and garments manufactured in leading countries such as Italy and Scotland.

As a response to the feedback from exhibitors and visitors in the last couple of years, suggesting that cashmere is often combined with other luxurious fibres such as silk and superfine merino wool to create hybrid garments and sweaters. The organizers wish to address the importance and qualities of all fine fibres at the fair.

By broadening its scope to cover the whole gamut of fine fibres, cashmere oriented exhibitors are also expected to benefit from the increased diversity of fashion buyers coming to the trade event as there will be a wider range of products manufactured from the world’s fine fibres on display.

Vicuna, Alpaca, Muskox (Qivlut), Merino, Angora Rabbit, Cashmere, Baby Yak Down, Camel Down, Guanaco, Llama, Chinchilla and Mohair – all of these fine fibres have their place in the world of luxury and it is a sector that has expanded significantly in the last decade with the growing middle classes in China and the BRICS looking for luxury products of all kinds, including sweaters and garments made from the finest and rarest fibres.

Industry leaders such as Karl Spilhauss, President of Cashmere and Camel Hair Manufacturers Institute (CCMI), USA, and Seyed Abbas Rafat, Associate Professor of the Animal Science Department at the University of Tabriz, Iran, will be presenting at the forum.

As a fashion event, Cashmere World is strengthened by the synergy created by being held concurrently alongside Asia’s leading fair for head-to-toe fashion, Fashion Access.
