Following the three runway shows, the event officially moved on to forecasting fall/winter trends, with experts from relevant fields and attendees engaging in discussions and knowledge sharing.

In his speech, Chairman Xu Yaoqin of Jiangsu Haoye Fiber Technology Co., Ltd. stated that fashion trends are the very essence of style, and that the fashion of wool knitting originates in the yarn itself. Only by pairing high‑quality yarn with cutting‑edge design concepts can truly fashionable products be brought to life.

As the times evolve at a rapid pace, people’s expectations for beauty and quality continue to rise, making the fashion industry an indispensable pathway for the transformation and upgrading of the traditional textile sector. Haoye is committed to strengthening its core competencies and driving R&D innovation, striving to become a trendsetter in the yarn industry. As a leading indicator of industry trends, Haoye consistently leverages its keen sense of fashion and forward‑looking creative vision to shape the direction of new product development in wool knitting yarns. By pioneering innovation at the source—exploring trending colors, designing intricate knit patterns, and crafting stylish knitted fabrics and garments—Haoye articulates its unique interpretation of yarn‑based fashion creativity. For fifteen consecutive years, Haoye has participated in SPINEXPO, the Shanghai International Yarn Exhibition, and for five years running has expanded beyond China, showcasing its cutting‑edge designs at international platforms in New York and Paris. These efforts have earned widespread recognition and acclaim from the industry, earning Haoye the reputation of “wool yarn expert.”

Since its founding, Haoye has been dedicated to the research, development, and production of fine wool spun yarns. Emphasizing brand culture and influence, the company draws on a lifetime of expertise, devoting decades to perfecting a single strand of yarn—loving it, nurturing it, and striving for excellence. From 2006 to the present, Haoye has remained an official supplier to Uniqlo; in 2010, its co‑developed TEC wool yarn achieved remarkable success. The company also supplies premium yarns to international brands such as Marks & Spencer, Les Fées, and GAP, while collaborating with leading domestic labels including Cabbeen, Ochirly, and Youngor. In terms of corporate responsibility, Haoye adopted an advanced ERP system as early as 2006 and, guided by a spirit of both self‑interest and social good, has consistently fulfilled its social obligations. Beginning in 2016, the company partnered with universities and designers to establish a product R&D center, exploring trending colors, developing knitted patterns, and creating fashionable knit fabrics and apparel. These efforts have given customers a more vivid, tangible impression of Haoye’s yarns, elevating the brand to a new level. Upholding the principles of sustainable development and innovation, Haoye conducts thorough market research and analyzes end‑consumer behavior, establishing a proprietary ready‑stock sales system for fashion‑oriented knitted wool yarns along with a comprehensive color‑palette framework. This approach better meets customers’ demand for rapid responsiveness.

Since establishing its Product R&D Center, Haoye has steadily matured through four years of experimentation. Guided and supported by industry associations and our customers, Haoye continues to grow. In the current landscape, we at Haoye will place even greater emphasis on delivering high‑quality products and services, while dedicating ourselves to in‑depth research into spinning technologies and processes. By seamlessly integrating wool with functional textile materials and upholding the principles of green, environmentally friendly, and sustainable development, we produce more fashionable knitted, woven, and circular‑knitting yarns, offering our customers profound inspiration—this is also the ultimate goal of Haoye’s transformation and upgrade.

In today’s market, yarn manufacturers—occupying the first link in the industry chain—believe that their role in shaping fashion trends from the source has yet to be fully realized. In fact, trend forecasts issued by yarn suppliers can provide even richer inspiration for brand designers, thereby helping to streamline and optimize the entire production process. Our Cai Xue ramie‑acrylic yarn, developed using innovative spinning technologies that break with convention and explore new color palettes, has inspired numerous brands and designers since its launch, finding applications in hats, scarves, fabrics, and finished garments.

To this end, Haoye faces a long and arduous journey. By better leveraging its position as a yarn‑source supplier and harnessing the fashion‑forward creativity of yarn traders, it is increasingly eager to forge closer communication and collaboration with downstream brands—working together to drive market growth and further optimize the industry chain—so as to achieve genuine win‑win outcomes.
