For British Textile Week 2023, UKFT has brought together some of the latest updates in textile innovation from the UK, alongside new developments in apparel fabrics and textile design that will be exported all around the world.

This year’s British Textile Week highlights the textile skills and expertise found across the entire United Kingdom:
