If the fashion market had already met the need for sporty couture for several seasons, the opportunity of choosing fabrics appealing to touch, functional and fashionable with greater comfort and fit, has now become very topical.

Inspired by these ideas, Pontetorto has come up with this collection of ‘lifestyle’ fabrics. Perfect for sporty chic garments, it includes comfortable fabrics, often with stretch for greater wearability as well as soft surfaces, with fibres smooth to the touch such as Tencel, Nylon, cotton and very fine wools.

With the contemporary needs of urban life in mind, these fabrics range from 1st-layer items, also direct-to-skin and ideal for home-wear and relaxation up to 2nd -layer garments to fit walking, gym performance and informal shopping.

The different textures and fibre assortments included in this collection feature a variety of performances: Brushed and sanded fabrics give higher sense of warmth, Tencel offers great breathability and ability to absorb moisture besides being a low-pollution and perfectly recyclable fibre; wool is breathable, thermo-regulating, hygroscopic and hydrophobic while natural cotton is cool to the touch.
