                        “We see denim evolving towards hybrid forms specifically in the luxury market using jacquard constructions,” Desolina Suter, head of fashion at Première Vision, told Inside Denim. She mentioned the work of Aurélia Leblanc, also on show in the trend forum, as another example of innovative artisanry using leftover denim fabrics to create hybrid products.
Exhibitor Kilim Denim has featured its new range of jacquard denim fabrics that the Turkey-based denim mill is seeking to develop. “We do not impose minimum order quantities for these fabrics, and we have a library of a hundred designs that customers can choose from, or they can have their own motifs and patterns made,” Isil Candan, Kilim Denim sales manager, told Inside Denim. The range can be made in four different colours, in weights spanning 7 to 14 oz, and the fabrics can also be overdyed for added depth of colour.
Pantone’s Moka colour of the year is another key focus of many products exhibited at PV Denim, which is on today in Milan. Isko for instance, has developed a series of denims with brown or burnt casts, waxes, overdyes, and such. Brown appears to be viewed as another way that denim mills can expand the palette of traditional denim aesthetics.
