The new fabrics make travelling a cinch. We now have a variety of natural fabrics that live up to the challenge of long-distance travel.
In-Flight Fabrics
- Lightweight shirting, which utilizes uneven dyeing processes to create a unique home-dyed effect. Imperfections are where it’s at.
- Denims with lots of finishing, sandblasting and washes, mattress ticking stripes and some overdyes.
- Marled and heathered knits with broken-up colour and salt-and-pepper effects that add an element of rawness and naturalness to knit collections.
- Prints with unusual re-colouration of botanicals and florals. Lots of mixing of patterns such as stripes, plaids, checks and prints.
