Materials, Colour & Styling News 2005/06According to WGSN, the importance of knitwear has grown steadily over the last few seasons. For this season
knitwear has taken over from jersey.
Knits are so key to this season that they are moving into other product areas - knitted coats and dresses offer
an alternative with longer, denser construction, shapes are smaller and all about texture and surface decoration.
Close-cut cardigans, cropped sweaters and short wraps feature.
Materials are seeing a return to natural fibre dominance and wool is being used as a dominant key fibre in 100%
pure new wool qualities and in blends with other natural fibres.
Natural fibre blends of cashmere, soft wool, mohair, angora, silk, linen and cotton whisper rather than shout of
their inherent luxury.
