The colour trends are divided into “Wearing” and “Living”, devoting a section to each within the publication. Wearing comprises inspirations and colour trends for garments, footwear and accessories.
The Living section features all colours that will decorate the season’s interior designs.
“In Wearing – reads TFL’s presentation note – we will discover how, after years of standardisation of leather, we have returned to discover its unique qualities. This is why we focused on both the aesthetic and utilitarian functions of leather, identifying four primary functions: protective, informative, sensory and technological. We have thus created natural and printed grains, burnished effects and extra-glossy surfaces, not forgetting shiny and silky suedes”.
As regards the Living section, “we will show how in an age of hyper-choice, where for each product there are several competing materials, it is important to support the tanners’ effort at bringing out the beauty and authenticity of the leather. We will demonstrate the importance of opening-up the structure of the skin starting from the beamhouse, making light leathers with a round hand, accentuating the three-dimensionality and vibrancy of the colours on soft, bright nappa”.
