AW 24-25 Fabrics : Highlights
Autumn-Winter 2024-25 celebrates both strength and fragility.
The power of the Solar Force, an inexhaustible source of energy, lights up materials. It runs through and highlights a humble nature, one we take time to linger over, the better to observe and understand it. We imitate its organic logic. Know-hows are reborn and flourish. Whether discreetly virtuoso or squarely in the spotlight of contemporary shine and sparkle, weaves, embroidery and finishings tend towards an enhanced, technical, augmented elegance.
Finally, a new direction is taking shape, one pointing to more durable, more sustainable fashion, notably through increasingly virtuous blends of materials.
SOLAR POWER
A source of energy in the heart of winter: light in action.Radiant energy: from lace to fur, winter collections are bathed in the radiant warmth of orange, an iconic color and a veritable hotbed of energy. Shadows fuse against the pure, radical incandescence of this season’s True Orange.
--> Gratacos Dentelles Jean BracqSee the product MallalieusSee the product Steiff SchulteSee the product Drawing with light: photogrammatic prints, and isolated, blurred, flickering, graduated patterns… light infuses backgrounds, fades woolens, illuminates dark grounds, lends a vibration to check outlines and is dispersed in halos across color-wovens.
--> TGM International NesatexSee the product Quorum TessutiSee the product Marton MillsSee the product Precious sparkles: broadcloths woven through with lamé, denim sprayed with gold, jeweled tweeds, silky brocades – fabrics shimmer, sometimes surreptitiously, sometimes in all the dazzle of a shine boldly embraced for day. Strangely shot glimmers shift over metallic sparkles and darkened gildings.

AUGMENTED ELEGANCE
A return to a spruced up elegance: understatement that refuses to go unnoticed.Couture black: A season that celebrates the strength of elegant plains. Black – restrained, exuberant when worked in decoration – steps out from the shadows to take center stage. In luxurious brushed fabrics, mad fringes, sequins, beads, and slippery satin reflections, black catches the light in fleeting flashes with mysterious, dramatic accents. High-drama embellishments deriving from a very theatrical black.
--> Brecotessile RiopeleSee the product Selecta ComoSee the product Alfred BrownSee the product Techno couture: with the revived interest in Tailoring elegance, blended, fluid and malleable suitings and iconic couturesilkies are enhanced with technical performance, while strong and dense knits move into the classic wardrobe to ensure strength, protection and greater comfort. Geometries are featured in virtuoso weaves. Preciousness blooms, right up to jeweled tweeds, and to embroideries and lace evoking high-end jewelry.

LOGIQUE ORGANIQUE
Encountering nature: getting to know it better, examining it up close, appreciating its potential.A resurgence of wool: we’re rediscovering wool’s potential in all areas, whether chic or technical, worn right next to the skin or for large wardrobe items. We’re not afraid to experiment with blends of vegetable or artificial fibers, or even paper yarns.

Conte – Marzotto Group Mario Cucchetti TessutiSee the product Zen Kiwami By Stylem Takisada-OsakaSee the product ModelmalhasSee the product Organic structures: through its textures and compositions, fabric evokes nature examined through a magnifying glass. As if given a reality check, handles are drier and rougher – with veins, honeycombs, cellular structures and lichens evoked here without any naiveté.
--> NESATEX MajocchiSee the product Dong A TolSee the product CavalleriSee the product Nature symbiosis: a tribute to plant life, tree rings, mushroom lamellae and leaf structures define a graphic vocabulary that inspires everything from lace to knits, jacquards, prints and flocking.
