Textile designers create two-dimensional designs that can be produced in a design repeat for commercial or artistic use. They work in knit, weave and print, creating designs that may be used in the production of fabrics or textile products.
Textile designers may specialise in soft furnishings or fashion fabrics or work in both areas. Their area of specialism can depend on the organisation for which they work.
They may also work in related fields, especially those where a design repeat is part of the process of production, for example wrapping paper, packaging, greetings cards, ceramics or floor or wall coverings.
Typical work activities include:
making up sets of sample designs;
producing sketches and design ranges for presentation to customers;
liaising with customers to plan and develop designs;
accurately interpreting and representing clients' ideas;
working independently if self-employed or liaising closely with colleagues as part of a small team;
using specialist computer aided design (CAD) software to produce a range of designs;
experimenting with colour, fabric and texture;
keeping up to date with fashion trends in fabric design by reading forecasts in trade magazines and using resources such as TextileWeb;
maintaining up-to-date knowledge of new and developing design.

"UNIK: danish Fashion" opens to the public on June 10th, 2004 and remains open until 24 October 2004.
"Show us who you are - design three works that express the essence of yourselves!"
This was the challenge and the assignment for the fourteen young Danish fashion talents who in the exhibition "UNIK: danish fashion" offer an impression of where Danish fashion design stands today - and convincingly document that the Danish fashion designers belong in the young international fashion design league.
Each of the designers has created a unique universe in oversized wardrobes that create a magical world - experimental, inspiring and at times disturbing. The designers are: Rikke Ruhwald, Malene Birger, Isabel Berglund, Peter Jensen, Henrik Vibskov, Jens Laugesen, Susanne Rützou, Anna Gulmann, Anne Ventzel, Helle Mardahl, Camilla Stćrk, Baum und Pferdgarten, Daughters of Style and Bettina Bakdal.
Thirteen of Denmark's top fashion photographers have made their mark on the exhibition in the form of personal interpretations of the designers' new works. In addition, the photographers have selected their own favourite shots from their work over the years, thus creating an exhibition within the exhibition.

The special event of Pitti Immagine Uomo n. 66 will be the world premičre runway showing of the Menichetti collection at the Manifattura Tabacchi in Florence on the evening of Thursday, 24 June the opening day of the fair.
Roberto Menichetti was one of the main fashion protagonists of the 'Nineties.
First he created the men's line for Jill Sander and then revamped the Burberry brand and look. And, this week he was appointed creative director of the historic maison Celine. The Menichetti collection made its debut in New York last season at the Annie Leibovitz's photography studio. This is Menichetti's first one-man fashion show: a unique presentation without any separation between the show and the workings in the wings. The Manifattura Tabacchi - the tobacco factory - a huge industrial complex erected in the 'Thirties is a fascinating structure and destined to become one of the main centers of the current program to relaunch artistic and cultural activities in Florence.
Purchased by Fintecna in December 2004.
