Reinvention is taking the traditional and innovating it to create comfort within a modern space, established through the use of colour and texture.
The combination of comfort and textiles emits a gentle tactility, and the colour usage allows access to seasonal inspirations that can be applied to a variety of textures.
A trend that will also be relevant this year is printed fabrics, with a focus on botanic prints. Originally, it was seen as influential in 2017, with the use of botanic prints in comforting colours, such as drift wood pinks.
Jenny explains that this year, it will evolve to cater to a more healthy living space, continuing the use of florals and botanics to create a sense of calm.
Another trend continuing from 2017 is heavy, dimensional waves. More textured weaves are being refined through the usage of yarn, which is tactile surfaces that use colour to create depth and dimension. It is predicted that it would be the next evolution of textured fabrics. Jenny also explains that fewer metallics are used to off-set the strength of woven details and dimensional surfaces.
