The British designer brand Neil Barrett has won a series of textile competitions in the past. It is popular in the media and the industry. Its founder Neil Barrett said, "for me, fabric is one of the main elements of modern fashion industry. We have our own way. I also uphold the principle of clothing comfort, and design clothing is not for graphic interests."

He also said that the composition of materials is closely related to the comfort performance of clothing.

Barrett, formerly a creative director of Prada, is famous for using high-tech fabrics, and is the first Prada fashion designer to use polyester elastic fabrics.

Now, in the design of its personal brand Neil Barrett, Barrett can skillfully handle the fabric from the male's aesthetic angle, thus creating a three-dimensional outline. Barrett uses "empty" fabric to build the structure and reduce the quality, so that the designed clothing is comfortable and presents a new look.

In the autumn and winter series of 2014/15, she introduced the concept of "green fur", printing the pictures of black bears and brown bears digitally, and then printing them on the surface of dresses, jerseys and short jackets.

In addition, he has tried real fur, but looks rather retro, and the raw fur is just right.

French designer Tillmann Lauterbach groped for doorway from Italy wool supplier Luciano Barbera, and was familiar with the fabric. "Fabric is 50% to 60% of clothing design, which provides a certain degree of rigour for your ideas."

Lauterbach is a strong fan of natural materials, especially wool and cotton.

Last summer, he contracted the crepe fabric and made the fiber shrink at high temperature. At the same time, it also enhanced the cooling effect of the fabric, and its comfortability and durability improved greatly.

Berluti

Director Alessandro Sartori said that the company invested a lot of money in the fabric research and development and the creation of the "new generation of clothing". It used a series of quirky technology on luxury fabrics, and at the same time combined elegance and functionality.

In Sartori's view, the three layer cashmere developed by a small fabric supplier in Italy is by far the most innovative fabric and will debut in this year's Berluti autumn and winter show.

The newly developed mixed fabric has a total mass of only 700 grams, the outer layer has the touch of cashmere, and it can be waterproof. The most inner layer is cashmere flannel, which has excellent thermal insulation effect, and the cashmere poplin in the middle is the basic framework and very light.

Therefore, a fashionable male coat has become a test design as a sports suit.

Dior Homme art director Kris Van Assche thinks fabric is very important. Fabric is both a symbol of social identity and a male.

"Fabric has been, to a certain extent, a strong advancement between men's and women's wear. Lace is considered to be the most unsuitable for men's clothing. Light and comfortable texture is the essential requirement of men's clothing today."

For Van Assche, the most interesting thing is to use fabrics in the most unexpected way, such as the deconstruction in the 2015 cowboy suits in the early spring series, while the Dior Homme 2014/15 autumn winter series reproduces the classic brand of the bell flower.

Sometimes, the birth of a new type of fabric can be regarded as a technical problem, and technology is not necessarily what you think it is.

Lanvin men's wear designer Lucas Ossendrijver imaginary double layer fabric is a lightweight and pendant cotton Bali yarn. However, the reality is a very hard double-layer fabric. Later, he inserted a very thin layer of mousse in the middle of the double-layer fabric, so that it was pparent and possessed.

Elastic and breathable fabrics.

As Ossendrijver said, "a mile is worth a mile."

What really needs to change is fabric. They constitute the foundation of the basic skeleton of men's clothing. Only by reforming the fabric can you continue to express your thoughts. That's why Ossendrijver studies the reasons for using colors, textures and patterns, and is also a sign of the Lanvin brand.
