Sportstextiles and Performance Days are launching a webinar series dedicated to knowledge and innovation in performance materials. The evolution of performance bodywear is the first of this new series. It takes place on September 15 at 3 pm, online.
Performance Reimagined – The Future of Bodywear brings together four industry experts:
- Nichole de Carle, Bodywear Curator at Performance Days

- Jillian Samis, SVP Global Marketing and Design at Tefron

Together they will share their insights on how innovations in fibres, garment engineering, advanced manufacturing and smart textiles are redefining next-to-skin performance, recovery apparel and wellbeing.
Key topics that will be covered:
1. Market trends & insights: How new approaches to wellness are impacting what bodywear can actively do — recovery, thermoregulation, skin health, sleep and biometrics.
2. From next-gen fibres to smart textiles: what fibres are cutting-edge manufacturers and brands choosing to use to offer new functions, from recovery to biometrics.
3. The evolution of seamless/3D knitting: tapping the potential of advanced knitting techniques to fine-tune function-mapping while addressing end of life issues.
