This week Trendstop present the highlights from Lineapelle FW19-20.
Hand painting techniques provide a new and creative way to do surface
pattern on skins in Artistic Influences, updating traditional print looks.
New Backers explores leather/fabric hybrid looks that feature unexpected
contrasts or complementary seasonal fabrications. Glace Reptile sees a
classic skin finish revamped with a contemporary, polished look for Fall
and utilising the latest fashion colours.
Artistic Influences
Artistry and creativity add a new dimension to leather and suede with
painterly daubs and bold, hand painted brushstrokes putting a unique,
‘modern art’ spin on printed leathers. Overpainting techniques are applied
directly to skin surfaces or layered under plastic coatings, offering both
matte and shine finish options.
New Backers
Backers adapt to winter, with warming felted and boiled wool
fabrications in sweater-like patterns and contrasting cosy brights. Fleece
and teddy fur backers complement animal skin facings while adding a cuddly
appeal to velvety suedes or rugged grain hides. Spongy neoprene
alternatives tap into the incorporation of performance qualities into
fashion product.
Glace Reptile
Croc, lizard and snakeskin are brought to the fore for Fall with
polished, glace and glazed coatings that highlight and enhance natural
scale patterns. Bold colour-ways or subtle metallic glitter accents update
a classic, luxury skin style with a fashion-forward edge.
