INDUSTRIES FAIR
NEW FABRICS FOR FAR EAST
to
The requirements of buyers from the Far East are occupying the special attention of British textile manufacturers who, at the toxtiles section of the British Industries Fair which takes place at the White City, London, from Feb. 20 Mar. 31, 1933, will provide the greatest display the world has yet Been! Nearly, 200 British textile firms will participate in this dis play of yarns, fabrics and inade-up goods, embracing cotton, linens, silks, artificial silks and woollens
otc.
The phenominal progress of the British dye industry during recent years has made it possible to give an absolute guarantee of fastness to sun light and fastness in the wash to such a range of colouring: as will answer the most exacting requirements. Vat dyes are almost universal for the cheapest as well" as the best materials.
The Eastern demand for thinner fabrics is being fully provided for in the extensive ranges to be shown at the White City.
There are several reasons why
tion has been paid to the very fine weaves now increasingly favour ed by fashion. Wool venetians and gabardines, wool crepes, romaines, baratheas and many other styles in fine weaves will be exhibited in great variety and at prices suited to the present economic condition of the world's markets.
In artificial silk fabrics and in combinations of wool with silk and artificial silk the display will be ne extensive and varied as has over been collected together.

merchants in the Far East and O BATAVIA:-On demand 56 particularly in China are paying ON HAIPHONG:- increased attention to British textiles. Foremost among those is the Japanese boycott which makes n Lancashire cargo welcome to dealers. Another important factor is the growing tendency towards European styles in dress.
The great improvement in the quality and design of British arti ficial silk fabrics is to a great ex- tent responsiblo for increasing Chinese interest in British cotton and artificial silk weaves. A glance at the official trade returna tells its own talo. During the current year Chinese purchase of Lancashire fabrics have risen considerably.
An entire hall at the exhibition will be devoted to a really compre hensive display of Scottish fabrics which will include Scottish tweeds, Saxonies, Cheviots, Harris tweeds, shawls, tartans, Glen Club and Glen Urquhart checks and other real Scottish dress, suiting and overcoating clotha, supreme throughout the world for construc- tion, design and quality?
