The current collection is based on essential blacks, grays and whites accented with a contrasting red and a tropical print. An elegant summer mood is revealed in wide cut sleeves, open edges and subtle stripings. The designers have used material contrasts as an important feature of the collection, combining flowing fabrics with more rigid, stiffened qualities topped off with light knitwear pieces. Jan’n June has focused on key TINTEX ‘Naturally Advanced’ innovations including organic cottons and linens and Tencel.
