Woolmark continues its return to leading international fairs next week at Première Vision and Texworld promoting the best in Merino Wool from its licensees around the world.
Woolmark will be showcasing Merino Wool innovation from licensed weavers at both Première Vision (Hall 5, stand 5L8 / 5M7) and at Texworld (Hall A2 Stand A01).
Working in collaboration with licensees The Woolmark Company has ensured the Woolmark Première Vision and Texworld stands provide a 'one-stop wool resource' for visiting designers, buyers and retailers to the show, featuring the very best in wool trends, demonstrating new blends, innovative techniques, and the latest ideas in terms of design, decoration and embellishment.
A comprehensive fabric resource guide is available at both shows, highlighting each fabric featured on the stand and the location of each supplying company around the show.
The Autumn Winter 2007/2008 season progresses with the resurgence of all things natural, fuelled by increasing ecological awareness. Highlighted by the use of wool across many ranges and product categories, used both in pure new wool and blended with other innovative sustainable fibres such as bamboo and hemp.
Lightness and softness are the key elements for wool this autumn season. In womenswear there is a focus on tenderness with soft, fluffy and fur-like aspects. Luxurious blends of Extra Fine Merino Wool with silk or cashmere create a cocooning effect, and evenchunky yarns remain lightweight and soft to the touch.
