Expressionists: FUR + FABRIC
FUR TYPES | This is a trend that bends the rules and offers an opportunity for innovative new techniques that could reshape the industry. Take inspiration from pioneering personalities like Florence Broadhurst or Paul Poiret and draw on the melding of technology with style to help create groundbreaking effects for classic furs that will move the fur trade forward. Whether it is through off-beat fabric mixes, dye techniques, print and pattern or silhouette, it’s time to tear up the rule book, get creative and follow your imagination.
FABRIC TYPES | The ornate fuses with technology to create a strong modern look. We love the notion of wet-look plastic and patent working alongside classic furs. Also, think bold prints and jacquards with metallic highlights and decorative influences from the 20s and 60s.
