The first edition of the Première Vision Awards recognised and rewarded four innovators in the industry in September 2009.
Italian weaver Ratti was given the Grand Jury Prize 2009 with its double jacquard blows that appears between silk and wool.
The Handle Prize went to a 100% wool indigo fabric by the Japanese weaver Showa. The Innovation Prize was attributed to a product by the Japanese exhibitor, Iwanaka, with 3D weave technique that captures air between its two fine layers of voile for a strangely puffy and springy handle. Jakob Schlaepfer from Switzerland was awarded the Imagination Prize to create an alloy of spongy volume with foam cubes and gilt imitation leather.
The autumn version of Première Vision Pluriel registered 55,758 visits from fashion professionals, an increase of 13.2% over the February 2009 show, and there were some 1,600 exhibitors.
