Designer’s Felt Creations Are Hot!

February 8, 2009 by Linda Lanese

I found this article on REALNEO!  I am pleased to be able to share just how Fashion Designers are using our favorite fiber, “felt” in their clothing designs.  The article begins by relating about felting in fashion:

It is rare to find anything new and innovative in fashion these days. It seems like every season is just another revival of the 60s, 70s, 80s, or some other past decade. The same things are re-presented without ever being reinvented. Horst, a nationally known local fashion designer is an exception to this trend.

Read the rest of this awesome article on REALNEO and let us know what you think.   I got the picture from the same site!
