According to exhibitors many designers and buyers from top level brands, particularly French such as Hermes, Chanel and LVMH etc had visited the stands as the demand for high-end luxury leather seems to continue for the autumn/winter 2012-13 collections. It would also seem that many of the buyers in the high-end segment are prepared to accept a lift in finished leather prices following the high cost of raw materials.
This edition of Le Cuir A Paris is the largest by surface area and the largest number of exhibitors comes from Italy followed by France, Spain and Turkey. There are also a large number of stands from other European countries and from Brazil.
