Textile Directions for Ready- to-Wear : Eco Luxe
Embracing luxury is becoming a 21st Century obsession as the desire for
indulgence comes to the forefront. With the exquisite touch of
cashmere, mohair, silk and extrafine virgin wool that caress the body, luxe
hungry consumers aren't neglecting their eco consciousness as
sustainable fibers also move into this sector. New blends are emerging that
embrace the body and deliver the most satisfying touch and wearing
experience. This ready-to-wear direction pulls from the featherweights that
have dominated the intimate sector with new features of lightweight
qualities in compact finishes. For the luxury element it is the touch that is
key; derived from noble fibers or micro soft synthetics.PRODUCTS
