APLF 2025 is running successfully on its second day today. At the inaugural press conference held yesterday, newly appointed event director Janice Lee celebrated the exhibition’s entry into its fifth decade. She expressed hope that the participants at APLF could shape market trends and influence leather prices for the next three quarters of 2025.
Ms Lee noted that onsite events were a direct response to feedback from previous visitors, aiming to address their desire for more industry knowledge, especially in educating Generation Z. She also pointed out that the added events have previously contributed to increased foot traffic at the exhibition.
This edition of APLF is celebrating creativity in Leather Fashion. Designers are the driving force behind creativity and innovation in the leather fashion industry. From seasoned veterans to emerging talents, visionaries from around the world have united to showcase their latest masterpieces and engage in inspiring discussions. The Showcase Highlights: LED x Italian Vegetable Tanned Leather Consortium: A stunning blends of modern and traditional craftsmanship that redefines elegance.
The trend area on the 3rd floor showcased the seasonal collection, aligned with APLF trends to witness the upcoming masterpieces from the exceptional talents, whose boundless creativity continues to shape and inspire the leather fashion landscape.
We bring leather, material and fashion businesses together: an opportunity to meet and greet face to face. We bring them from all parts of the world so that they can find fresh partners, discover new customers or suppliers and keep ahead of industry developments.
We organise a number of trade exhibitions which focus on fashion and lifestyle: sectors that are constantly in flux, so visitors and exhibitors alike need to be constantly aware both of the changes around them and those forecast for coming seasons.
