Canada : Adaptable bamboo fabrics
August 19, 2006 |  |
 Bamboo fabrics have been featured in several of Canadian fashion icon Linda Lundstrom's spring 2007 groupings in everything from a versatile bamboo jersey skirt that can be worn 10 different ways, to casual bamboo rayon/cotton/Spandex blend leggings, to an elegant Signature design featuring a bamboo jersey slip dress under mirrored Georgette.
Bamboo fashions have a lot of fabulous qualities, as the Bamboo fabrics stay two degrees cooler than other fabrics, so they provide cool comfort and they have a natural wicking ability.
They wick moisture away from the skin.The soft, breathable, knit fabrics also offer an antibacterial function, acting as a natural deodorant.
Lindigo denim fashions are available in dark wash, bleached and 3D (distressed, destroyed, and deranged).
They come decorated with graffiti or sequin embellishments.
Other fabrics featured in next spring's Lundstrom collection include: her ever-popular array of luxurious laces; hand painted fabrics, offered as part of her Signature Collection; pure linen and pure silk; eye-catching iridescent taffeta; as well as linen/silk blends; cottons and polyesters.
One of the pieces that figures prominently in Lundstrom's Spring 2007 Collection is an elegant, classic, Grace Kelly-style shirt dress, which was the designer's outfit-of-choice.
Outerwear offerings include waterproof trench coats in three lengths: ankle, knee and hip and there's a pleated raincoat, with a hood inside the collar.
