2 PRECIOUS THE MOOD A delicate and innocent direction, PRECIOUS is inspired by the simplest of moments and activities as we disconnect from the speed of our super connected society.

Color features, raising the bar from delicate pastels to more bold and unusual hues, it is very much a reflection of past memories that you value, a gentle escapism away from the modern day frenzy. It can be interpreted from sophisticated and subtle in appearance to a more chichi appeal for the younger end of the market. Fabric surfaces can range from powdery natural touch to semi lustrous silky-touch effects that are bold yet deliver reassurance to the wearer.

4 DIVINE LINES THE MOOD A need to update and innovate the shapewear sector is delivered in Divine Lines as fashion and function continue to collude. On the functional side it is the essential ingredient of the power that creora spandex/elastane can deliver to garments combined with the active ingredients of high performance synthetics that enhance the wearability from cool touch to moisture management in delivering 24/7 comfort. A key factor to the shapewear sector is that high compression fabrics are getting much lighter but still delivering the precise power stretch in shaping, evident through the featherweight circular knits through with high power through to lighter warp knits. From the fashion front, surfaces reflect and gleam amongst the more matte offerings and color also competes in a move away from traditional flesh tones. Surfaces vary from compact ultra matte through to a modern gleam for contrast within shaping garments. The importance of additional functional aspects from the activewear market is key. We are looking for extreme comfort but also the divine delivery that shapewear can bring to the consumer in smoothing, enhancing and flattening. This is a move away from traditional shapewear, it is evolving into lighter weight garments with a stronger sense of style.

6 REVIVE THE MOOD Fully immersed in the Information Age, we cannot deny the advanced production processes and ingredients available to us. Yet we cannot appreciate the present without revisiting and respecting the past with one era in particular inspiring: the Industrial Age. While the gap between the two is vast, there are similarities, the excitement and developments that featured in changing society, they were just as big an issue then as they are now. Through REVIVE we pay homage to the turn of the 20th Century with a twist, when industrialization got into the full swing resulting in a period of opulence through to darkness, changes that were the foundation of today s developments. This is about blending tradition with modern technology in creating something new, something fantastical but also with an edge. The core inspiration also appeals to the final garment design as we look to decorative details and corsetry styling. The dark side of this direction and the industrial aspect also contains plenty of appeal for the menswear market as well as being able to offer a steam punk approach with a rebellious spirit for the younger consumer.

What is different now is it isn t just about performance, a lot more attention is being placed on a stronger fashion accent especially for the womenswear market.
