TFL, the worldwide leather chemical company, have produced their new forecast of fashion colours for leather for the spring/summer 2005 season, in association with the Italian Designers Carmen Rimoldi and Sergio Belloni. The main advantage of this forecast for TFL’s customers is the fact that it is published 21 months in advance of the retail season.
The colour preferences are divided up into the usual categories: Elegant, Classic and Sport. Styling directions, as well as general fashion considerations and trends are included, together with recipes from beamhouse through to finishing.
Elegant shades are characterised by soft colours ‘from the world of flowers’. Classic colours, on the other hand are from ruby red to golden yellow. They can be described as ‘symbolic and precious tones’ that suggest luxury. The Sport palette shows ‘determined and contrasting tones’ that come from ‘the fantasy world of cartoons’.
The forecast of fashion colours are published twice each year. The exclusive TFL editions are available in February and August. Please contact your local TFL agent or representative for details, or visit [http://www.tfl.com] to see the forecast colours.
