Fabric Trends and Luxaflex

Inspiration for some of today’s greatest fashion masterpieces have been pulled from the most unconventional of places.  From the garments hanging in your wardrobe to the blinds dressing your living room, external factors and current trends have all, in one way or another, played a part in design and development.

As an industry leader, Luxaflex Window Fashions embraced the global and local textile trends and incorporated these into their fabric selection and development processes.

There are four trends which have taken the broader fashion industry by storm. These include: Geological Reflections, Impressions of Lace, Geometrics and Three Dimensional.

1. Geological Reflections

The first of the four trends is Geological Reflections, which boast the evolution of the organic and natural forms. A combination of vivid colours, reflective surfaces and shimmery hues, allows for glitz and glamour to be used in a far from traditional manner but instead in a free-flowing and imperfect way.  


2. Impressions Of Lace
Impressions of lace as the name suggests, is the use of delicate and dainty finishes as well as fine and detailed patterns and textures. This trend is mirrored in the Luxaflex range through fabrics such as Morea and Prague-Sheer which are soft and feminine yet still manage to make a statement and maintain a modern feel.  


3. Geometrics
The Geometrics trend is dominating the Fashion, Commercial and Residential textile sectors. Next time you find yourself flicking through the pages of a Home Décor or design magazine you’ll be surprised at the amount of different geometric patterns which have made their way into the homes of trend-setters! Luxaflex has adopted this trend and introduced fabrics that use a layered weaving technique to show its sophistication and geometric design.


4. Three Dimensional

The last trend - Three Dimensional has had a great influence on home interior design and particularly on textile designs and finishes. This trend has seen the introduction of elevated surfaces which allows the fabric to become quite interactive and really come to life.
