In Italy the main areas for textiles are :

on the north (Milan's area) BIELLA and BERGAMO
on the center (Florence's area) CARPI and PRATO

all of them can be easily reached either by plane (the respective closest airports are TORINO - BERGAMO -BOLOGNA and FIRENZE) or by train (all the 4 cities have a railway station and have easy connections with the airports too).
You can also rent a car and drive since they are in the range of about 250/300 kms (abt.150-200 miles).
However this will depends also which is yr departure point.
