Fibre as Fashion

Shibori Design

Wearable fiber may be the most striking design to hit fashion in a long time. Each Shibori design is carefully and artfully executed and handled individually so each design is different for every fashionista. Karren Brito and Leslie Brito recently complete a show in Boston and the response was excitement.

Implications - Fashion is something that lets consumers become individuals and enables them to show off their personality though style. There are numerous fashion demographics and each one has its own unique style. The beauty of clothing is that no matter what a company creates, there is always going to be a market to sell it to. The company just has to figure out which demographic it should be advertised towards.
