Non-Denim, Recycled Fibers and Zero-Cotton Concepts Trend at Kingpins Amsterdam

Apr 20, 2023

“‘Real denim’ was the focal point for Artistic Milliners, which revisited 100-year-old constructions. The Pakistani vertical denim manufacturer updated classic denim fabrics with sustainable dyeing, fibers and some with 20-25 percent stretch. Special spinning techniques added softness and mechanical stretch properties to other fabrics. The Nippon range culled inspiration from Japanese fabrics, offering loose and comfortable constructions. The company’s EarthCore collection highlighted biodegradable fabrics made with TENCEL™, linen, hemp, cotton and Roica V550 by Asahi Kasei, a Cradle to Cradle certified stretch yarn with a Material Health Gold Level certificate.”
