RE/SOURCE: Bakermat @ MoMu Library

Antwerp-based fabric shop and digital platform Bakermat is organising the fifth edition of the textile event RE/SOURCE. This edition will take place over a period of six days in six different cities in Belgium, the Netherlands and France, and on 14 November, the event will be hosted at the MoMu Library.

Explore over 1,000 fabric samples and get the chance to buy fabrics directly from textile partners without minimum order quantity. Short presentations at 11:00 AM and 2:00 PM will highlight manufacturers’ expertise and production methods.

RE/SOURCE is a travelling fabric fair where Bakermat offers visitors access to the remaining stocks of its textile manufacturers. Students, hobbyists and designers get the chance to explore deadstock fabrics for a day, put together their selection and place an order without minimum order quantity. Within 2-3 weeks after the final day of RE/SOURCE, all orders are ready for shipment or can be picked up at Bakermat.

For this edition, Bakermat is working with fabrics from a selection of international textile manufacturers: Berto (ITA), Besani (ITA), Beste (ITA), Gruppocinque (ITA), Libeco (BEL), Luigi Ricceri (ITA), Maggia (ITA), Paoletti (ITA), Scabal (BEL), Serica 1870 (ITA), Sophie Hallette (FRA), Motif (Bangladesh), Akalroop (India) and Pontoglio (ITA).

New to this edition are Motif, which specialises in handwoven fabrics made from natural and recycled fibres; Akalroop, renowned for its artisanal woven textiles and expertise in silk; and Pontoglio, a leading producer of premium velvet fabrics. In addition, visitors will be able to discover a selection of deadstock fabrics from Belgian designers, including Ann Demeulemeester.
