Italian mill Miroglio Textile created a real buzz of excitement at the Premiere Vision Pluriel fair in Paris last week. It demonstrated the importance of history in order to create for the future.

| Exclusive patterns from Archivio Mantero (an archive from more than 100 years) provide inspirational ideas for Miroglio Textile to develop into new scarf designs. |
At the prestigious textile fair, a must-attend event for all in the fashion and related industry, the company presented its debut collection of scarfs which was the result of a new partnership forged between Miroglio and Matero – two textile power houses of Italy.

Chiaretto Calo, Global Commercial Director of Miroglio explained that some 60 designs in various colourways were selected from the archives of Mantero, which has a rich history of more than 100 years of design creativity, and from these, Miroglio using their technical and innovation know-how have developed and produced a wide collection of new scarf designs. Miroglio will also be distributing the scarf collection.
Mr Calo explained that the two textile houses were previously rivals but have not resolved their differences and combined their expertise to work together for the first time.
The patterns in the new collection includes floral themes - romantic flora and fauna reproduced with a photographic perspective or in 70s-psychedlia. There is an indigo range with reinterpretation of nautical themes, a classic range, jungle effect drawings, and geometric, ethnic and mixed-cultural influences as well as optical effects and inspiration by the art of Pollock and Andy Warhol.
