You loved the 'Bliss' Denim range, but the new 'Relax' denim collection has got some new and amazing colours to keep your makes completely unique. This is another mid-weight stretch denim and is similar to 'Bliss'. It has body to it, and soft to touch (especially the white under-side). It isn’t too heavy at 280gsm (or 8 ½ oz per yard) and comes with just a little 'give' on the cross grain. Poly content in denim is something I've been researching and have come to appreciate it. It brings a softness, keeps the cloth lighter, helps with the dying process, and reduces creasing. The twill weave brings a slight sheen when you move it in the light.
The 6 launch colours tick lots of boxes. Do you love the vibrancy of the Saffron and Crimson, the softness of Lemonade, and the fresh alternatives of Brickworks and Mauve Taupe? Perhaps you love the 'Petrol' alternative to the classic blue denim.
'Petrol' is a gorgeous bluish green denim, that's a unique alternative to classic blue denim. It looks great with a range of colours (pinks, taupes, reds), and will keep your denim makes apart from the crowd. Enjoy!
This is perfect for slim fit or straight leg pants, straight or A-line skirts, jackets, blazers, pinafores, overalls/dungarees and vests. It will bring the perfect amount of 'give' across shoulders of your jacket, and in the seat of your trousers/pants.
