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

Seventeen boards: an analysis of the season's expected direction in casualwear, followed by sixteen themed boards translating that direction into textiles — among them, lightweight cottons, pastel touches, seersucker and reliefs, cool greens, new blue blazers, large stripes and big checks, denim renditions, bold jacquard patterns, textured sport jackets, cold brown shades and vitaminic colours. Ninety-four 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 images showing how the fabrics are used. Sustainable fabric developments are included throughout.

Who it's for
Menswear casualwear 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.

Next edition: Autumn/Winter 2028/2029 — available March 2027.
