South India cotton yarn trade slows ahead of Diwali
In Mumbai, cotton yarn prices were largely unchanged, although a few counts, including **s, saw slightly better demand due to urgent requirements. A trader from the Mumbai market told Fibre*Fashion, “Cotton yarn buying will remain slow in the coming days until the festival. The consumer industry will plan production after Diwali. The wedding season will reignite textile demand. Traders and manufacturers are currently focused on dispatches and deliveries ahead of the festival.”
In Mumbai, ** carded yarn of warp and weft varieties were traded at ****;*,***–*,*** (~$**.**–**.**) and ****;*,***–*,*** per * kg (~$**.**–**.**) (excluding GST), respectively. Other prices include ** combed warp at ****;***–*** (~$*.**–*.**) per kg, ** carded weft at ****;*,***–*,*** (~$**.**–**.**) per *.* kg, **/** carded warp at ****;***–*** (~$*.**–*.**) per kg, **/** carded warp at ****;***–*** (~$*.**–*.**) per kg and **/** combed warp at ****;***–*** (~$*.**–*.**) per kg, according to trade sources.
Turkiye’s home textile exports slipped 1.81 per cent YoY to $3.25 billion during January–August, as softer EU demand and inflation curbed global orders.
MMF home textiles remained dominant, comprising 62.35 per cent of total exports.
Despite recent volatility, shipments stayed above pre-COVID levels, driven by strong floor textile exports, while cotton and other fibre-based segments saw declines.

Known for his pathbreaking, haute-romantic designs, Valli has long captivated global audiences.

Valli also recently designed the bridal gown of local TV presenter and star Sabrina Sato.

Alongside Paolo Nieddu, the pair created the wardrobe of Empire and The United States vs. Billie Holiday.

Italy plans to apply an extra levy on some imported Chinese goods to help protect its fashion industry, government sources told Reuters on Wednesday. The move is aimed at avoiding unfair competition in the market for what is one of Italy’s key industries, the people said, asking not to be named.
“We will present a measure to tackle the ultra fast fashion phenomenon: an invasion of low-cost foreign products that damage our producers and put consumers at risk,” Industry Minister Adolfo Urso said in a statement at the end of a meeting with fashion industry representatives in Rome.
The government plans to intervene by adopting a scheme envisaged in a European Union directive on the so-called Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), the sources said.
The charge will force manufacturers to cover the costs of collecting, sorting and recycling their products once they become waste. Some of Italy’s top fashion brands are themselves facing pressure to ensure that their subcontractors are in compliance with rules on workers’ rights.
Italian prosecutors have alleged that luxury shoemaker Tod’s failed to adequately oversee its suppliers in order to pursue higher profits. The company – which is not under investigation – said that it complies with the law. Five other luxury brands have already been put under judicial administration for similar reasons in Italy since the start of last year.
