From September 5 to 7, 2026, WSN invites fashion, lifestyle, design, jewelry, accessories, and sourcing professionals to Paris Expo Porte de Versailles for three days of discovery, business, and inspiration.

Four co-located trade shows make up the creative hub

Who's Next, Shoppe Object Paris, Bijorhca, and Interfilière Paris come together under one roof in Hall 1, offering a cross-disciplinary view of the creative industries. It's a genuine ecosystem; a place where brands, manufacturers, retailers, concept stores, department stores, and tastemakers converge to shape the markets of tomorrow. WSN aims to give visitors a panoramic view of contemporary creativity, and to help them build discovery journeys that are more inspiring, more efficient, and more open to new opportunities.

One badge, four shows, three days. One destination to explore Spring/Summer 2027 collections, discover emerging talent, identify the innovations reshaping markets, and decode the evolving expectations of today's consumers. Who's Next will host 900 brands, bringing together French and international labels across ready-to-wear, accessories, and lifestyle. Curve, Who's Next's flagship summer destination, brings together over 70 brands specializing in swimwear, resortwear, and beach accessories

The Dinner: a Celebration of Taste, Connection, and Creativity

For this September edition, WSN introduces a shared theme across all its events: the dinner. It's a place to devour inspiration, discover new creative horizons, spark unexpected encounters, and imagine the collections of tomorrow. Here, dinner becomes more than a shared moment. It becomes a space for expression, a place where materials, objects, silhouettes, craftsmanship, and ideas enter into conversation.

Reading the shifts in the market

Just inside the entrance to Who's Next, visitors pass through the Welcome Buyer Forum, a curated window onto the trends and cross-pollinations animating the show. Featuring over 200 pieces selected from across the shows' various universes, the space stages a dialogue between ready-to-wear, accessories, jewelry, design, and lifestyle, reflecting the richness and complementarity of fashion, design, and fine jewelry. New to this edition, Who's Next launches the Denim District, a dedicated space devoted entirely to one of fashion history's most iconic materials. Approached across its cultural, aesthetic, artisanal, and commercial dimensions, denim is explored as a heritage fabric, a terrain for creative experimentation, and a symbol of the circular economy. The Denim District presents a new exhibition of works created from pieces sourced through Eureka Fripe, a pioneer in secondhand fashion.

The collaboration with Whatnot

Another highlight of this edition is the focus on live shopping at Who's Next through a new partnership with Whatnot. The dominant platform in North America and Europe, Whatnot, has been at the forefront of the live auction boom, and it has found a natural home in Who's Next. For the first time, Whatnot will have its own dedicated space at the show, where it will walk brands and retailers through its platform and the opportunities it opens up.

Forum Impact and Neonyt Paris & Who's Next Lab: Thinking Fashion Forward

Who's Next continues its commitment to a more conscious and innovative fashion industry through two complementary spaces: Forum Impact and Neonyt Paris, and the Who's Next Lab. This season, Forum Impact and Neonyt Paris are curated by the Baga collective, a key voice in Marseille's Slow Fashion Week, recognized for its work in advancing responsible, ethical, and inclusive fashion. The collective will also present a selection of six sustainable brands from its ecosystem: Engagés Engagées, Jade Tekhil, Midi 25, Frankie Collection, Marj The Label, and Strass Chronique.

Alongside it, the Who's Next Lab shines a light on the innovations transforming design, production, and distribution. Startups, industry experts, and tech companies present concrete solutions for creative professionals. Cabine.ai will offer an AI-powered virtual fitting experience, while Livetrend presents its data- and AI-driven fashion intelligence tools, helping brands stay ahead of emerging trends.

Wsn Academy: Knowledge in Action and Ulule

Conceived as WSN's content and knowledge-sharing platform, the WSN Academy supports brands, retailers, and entrepreneurs in growing their businesses. For this edition, it takes the form of an open garden at the heart of Hall 1, a space designed for connection, the exchange of experience, and learning. Developed in partnership with the Fédération Française du Prêt-à-Porter Féminin and its Écosystème de la Mode, the program brings together talks and expert sessions on the questions that matter most to professionals: building a desirable brand, growing a distribution network, improving the customer experience, and strengthening wholesale strategy. Ulule (the leading crowdfunding platform in Europe) partnership laureates will also be integrated into the WSN Academy, with mentoring sessions and peer exchanges designed to extend and deepen their professional development. Launched in 2021, this collaboration was created to discover, fund, and launch young talent and emerging brands in the fashion, accessories, and lifestyle sectors, combining digital fundraising with physical commercial visibility.
