MarediModa Cannes 2026: SS2028 Swimwear Fabric Trends and Sourcing Outlook

MarediModa returns to Cannes from October 27–29, 2026, for its 24th edition, presenting more than 100 European fabric and accessory collections for Spring/Summer 2028. The trend programme, curated by David Shah under the theme "Ocean Vibes", maps five creative directions across beachwear, bodywear and athleisure. The Lycra Company joins as official partner, marking the 80th anniversary of the bikini and highlighting Xtra Life fibre built to resist chlorine, heat and UV exposure.

For brands and e-commerce sellers planning 2027 resort buys, Cannes is where next season's fabric story starts — early sampling secures both trend position and lead time.

Xihong Apparel turns new fabric directions into production fast, with 72-hour sampling for swimwear and lingerie collections.
