Stoll at Spinexpo

STOLL will present a selection of samples in the Spinexplore area; the trend area curated by Spinexpo is where the latest trend forecasts, key yarns and stitch developments are shown. The presented samples are a combination of historical stitches and newest developments, such as ADF technology from STOLL`s pattern archive.

Discover a selection of Spinexpo’s key trends for Spring Summer 2021 and let yourself be surprised by STOLL`s know-how and stitch innovation.

Following Spinexpo’s general trend direction of wellness and wellbeing, STOLL will show a selection of sports-inspired and developed-for-sport designs with dynamic fine gauge stitches that blur the boundaries between fashion and technical textiles.

The sport theme continues with a more subtle and a quieter color palette that includes woven-like structures with STOLL-weave-in® technology for increased fabric stability or comfortable padding effect. To improve the performance and durability of the fabric, STOLL combined natural fibre properties and technical yarns. Besides the sports sample, there is a selection of soft and soothing surfaces inspired by geometry and shimmery effects, a mix of traditional stitches and contemporary knitting technology.

Visit STOLL from February 25-27, 2020 in Spinexplore trend area at Spinexpo Shanghai.
