Knitting Elements Infuse New Fun, Traditional Soft Fabric

?? it's time to add soft and delicate clothes to the wardrobe. Looking at the release of ready-made clothes at the international show this autumn and winter, the reporter found that knitting elements have won the favor of designers this season: long dress, short top, soft coat, fluffy vest... A large number of hollowed out designs have injected a new interest into knitting. Traditional soft fabrics are characterized by bold three-dimensional tailoring, which can be used in a variety of ways and full of artistic tension. Fashion industry insiders believe that breaking the conventional application of soft knitting is the knitting feature of this year's T-stage, and its biggest advantage is to provide more scene application matching scheme for daily use under the premise of fully considering the wearing comfort.

　　 New season knitting

Popular strategy

Knitted fabric, large hollowed out, soft and draping, three-dimensional straight, does it sound very contradictory? In fact, this is the unique charm of the fashion of knitting in the season, which can be seen in the shows of major brands. For example, at Milan fashion week, Jil Sander's wide sleeve knitted long skirt, Max Mara's big stand collar sweater, Valentino's one-line collar knitted dress, Prada's three-dimensional carved needle knitted shawl... Business analysts revealed that, In recent years, it is suitable for the comfort of the bottom layer of clothing, especially for the comfort of the bottom layer.

Chen Li, a clothing display and collocation division, told reporters that knitted fabrics used in autumn and winter can not only provide warmth retention, but also soothe and delight the mood. "For example, we will pay attention to the healing atmosphere when we decorate the shop window or shop display. As a good recipe for adjusting life, clothing items play a great role."

In addition, Chen Li also said that putting forward three-dimensional requirements for soft knitting is actually a concrete expression of people's demand for "wearing more than one garment". When you are at home, you want to be soft and comfortable, and when you go out, you want to be neat. The new knitted fabric, which is soft and can stand up, can attack and defend just fine.

Design subdivision:

Colorful color, tassel Collage

If analyzed from the perspective of fashion design, new knitting can be seen from two aspects: first, extremely rich and colorful colors; second, the fusion of dynamic decorative details full of vitality. The reporter noticed that a clean solid color is a relatively safe scheme. Whether it is a wide version or a close fitting one, it can let the wearer show the greatest degree of tenderness; The bold color contrast is more fashionable, but it has high requirements for the wearer's control skills. It requires the wearer to select a high-quality color system to collide under the premise of being familiar with personal style. The effect is amazing, but the risk of error is also slightly higher. In this regard, sports fashion brand design director Liang Fengshan told reporters that this year's knitting in the washing process also has a big change, the characteristic performance is the fashionable tie dye back wash style, which can make the simple color become more hierarchical and gradual.

It should be noted that the details of elegant tassel design, as well as the three-dimensional collage application of wool knitting. The reporter noticed that tassel, as a decorative detail of fashion design, is almost never absent every season, because its most significant role is to increase the dynamic aesthetic feeling of the body when the wearer is walking, and give people the playful beauty of swaying posture. Liang Fengshan said that if the tassel and wool knitting design are integrated, it can also show more fabric texture changes, which can strengthen and highlight the theme in the expression of clothing style. "In terms of design skills, it can be manifested as the eversion of sewing head, the sense of old-fashioned and tassels, and the cutting along the knitting texture with big knife, etc., which can play an embellishment role for the overall modeling, and show the unique strength sense of women with softness and rigidity."

　　 Wearing application:

Mix and match materials, atmosphere make-up hair

As the name suggests, the application of wearing can be roughly divided into two parts: one is the performance of the material mix and match of the clothing itself; the other is the atmosphere that the wearer shows with her makeup and hairstyle.

According to the reporter, the latest color blending scheme is used in the same season. For knitted fabrics, designers often use the color and texture of yarn as the medium to integrate color blocks into clothing by splicing or stacking. Liang Fengshan told reporters that under the premise of the overall gray tone unchanged, the interspersed mix and match of thick bar knitting and fine knitting can immediately create a strong visual difference, making the overall shape of the same color system into a style, with rich texture, and comfortable and soft texture, which will not produce a strong skin feeling due to the neat outline.

Also worth noting is the make-up and hairstyle scheme that matches knitting. Chen Li, a clothing display and collocation division, told reporters that long straight hair or short hair in the season can do some "fluffy" increase, the principle is a bit similar to the creation of a sense of space atmosphere, clothing matching also needs to embellish the atmosphere, and hair is the first point, the second point can fall on lip makeup and blush. "Wool rolls are a good choice." Chen Li suggests that if you don't like the texture of curly hair, you can also try to brush up your hair in a close fitting way, with a hat, sunglasses or a long scarf. The color of lip makeup and blush can be selected according to the color of the main knitted fabric, so as to lighten the overall vitality. "

Technological innovation:

Outdoor scene, function extension

With the promotion and application of technology-based fabrics in the global garment industry, some fabric functions that seemed impossible to achieve before have obtained new breakthroughs in recent years. Wool is an important part of the new knitting trend. Its fusion and extension of functional scenes bring new possibilities for knitted fabrics. Among them, the most prominent and attracting industry attention is the outdoor scene application of sports theme.

The reporter interviewed Zhu Meishi, technical manager of the Woolmark company in China, and learned that with people's recognition of the sustainable development of the environment and the psychological demand for healing, soft and skin friendly wool fabrics are more widely welcomed. From personal clothing, outdoor camping clothing, winter sports clothing, there is no lack of wool. As for the integration of knitting and wool, Zhu Mei said that due to the fineness and elasticity of wool, wool itself has quite a number of properties (such as pure natural, antistatic, breathable, flame retardant, antifouling, etc.), which can increase the skin feeling and wearing experience for different fabrics. When blended with knitted fabrics, the wool can be blended with different textures, fabrics and fabrics The structure and the weight of the fabric process mix to enhance the texture of the clothing, including three-dimensional version and detail tailoring.

In the future, can wool knitted fashion achieve the effect of wind proof and waterproof? The answer is predictable. According to Zhu Mei, the company has cooperated with professional sailing teams to research and develop high-performance professional team uniforms that are waterproof and breathable. They present seamless technology, which can make woolen clothing comfortable and breathable, while optim Technology (wool physical denaturation Technology) also allows wool garments to show high performance of wind and water resistance.

At present, the industry generally believes that there are many possibilities for the application of wool in outdoor sports clothing. It is estimated that by blending with other materials and fabrics, more multi-functional clothing that can adapt to a variety of climate changes can be developed to serve the multi scene needs of diversified consumers.
