New Postcard Preview available from Stahl
17/06/2011
The preview provides the reader with a collection of first impressions forecasting how leather will look during this season.
Thirty-two leather samples are interspersed with a variety of fascinating photographs, presented as postcards, showing leather fashion associated with footwear, clothing and leathergoods. Although the emphasis is very much on the appearance of leather, colour nevertheless remains important and can play an important role in the look of each effect, Stahl says. Some effects are clearly better for darker colours while others show up better in light or brighter tones and shades.
Descriptions of style join with key points to tell the story behind each fashion group and to give the reader an insight into the thoughts for the presentation, use and appearance of leather during the northern hemisphere’s short days and long nights of autumn and winter.
The result is a booklet that, together with its colour preview companion, has an important place on the designer’s work table and in the beamhouse, wet-end and finishing departments of the tannery, the company concludes.
