Looking ahead
New sample collections at Lineapelle (23-25 February)
Exhibitors are now making the final selection for material samples for Spring ‘17, which they will show at the end of February.
In particular, they are indicating semi-vegetable nappas which are dense-bodied, with a soft and full appearance, pearly and often moving towards classics.
We will see new washed, printed and laminated materials, glossy patent leather in striking colours, matched to create a powerful visual contrast. Pastels and cobalt blue.
South Africa, New Zealand and the Middle East are the favourite sources for materials, according to use for either high-end or middle-range products.
