A professional colour and fabric forecast for the womenswear Spring/Summer 2028 season, researched and compiled by Italtex Trends in Biella.

The forecast is a starting point for collection work: the season's directions identified, the colours referenced, the fabrics analysed. Designers and stylists build on it when developing their own boards and presentations. Product developers take it to suppliers as the basis for a development conversation — the Pantone® codes go straight to a dyehouse, and the analysis names the constructions, yarns and finishes to ask for. Mills use it to plan fabric ranges; brands, to plan garments. Customers have also worked from it on hats, luggage and accessories.

Nineteen boards: an analysis of the season's expected direction, followed by eighteen themed boards translating that direction into textiles - among them, interplay of transparencies, vegetal hues, new interpretations of denim blue, sophisticated reliefs, 90s inspired jackets, metallic glints on pink shades, vibrant colours, rustic look with linen. Eighty-eight colours are referenced with Pantone® codes, ready to specify with mills and dyehouses.

Every board covers woven, knitted and jacquard fabrics, with a written analysis of the fibres, yarns, constructions, patterns and finishes behind each direction — alongside runway images showing how the fabrics are used. Sustainable fabric developments are included throughout.

Who it's for
Womenswear stylists, designers, fabric mills, converters, product developers, brands and textile agents planning SS 2028 collections.

What you receive
A PDF forecast in English or Italian. The edition remains available to you for reference throughout the season and beyond.

A version with an envelope of loose fabric swatches is also available. Swatches are posted within five working days of purchase. We send them loose rather than mounted: it is a more sustainable version that avoids the adhesives, board and paper used in conventional sample books, and the lighter parcel means lower shipping emissions.

Italtex has published textile trend forecasts for the international fashion industry from Biella since 1959.
