Vicuna is the most expensive cloth in the world, and Scotland’s Holland & Sherry has woven the first 100% worsted Vicuna fabric. Holland & Sherry weavers have supplied this fabric to the [finest tailors on Savile Row](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vollebak-neo-suit) and Parisian couture garment makers for over 170 years. Holland & Sherry spent 5 years gathering the wool from the Vicuna, which is found only in the highest Andes Mountains. The Vicuna produces only a very little of the [fine wool](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cashmere-wool-coats) and can only be shorn every three years. The company only has enough Vicuna fabric for 18 suits in black, midnight and natural. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.9/10 - Popularity: 71% | Activity: 67% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxury) > [Ultra Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/ultraluxury) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **$70,000 Suits:** Opportunity for luxury fashion brands to cater to ultra-wealthy individuals seeking exclusive and prestigious clothing items. - **Worsted Vicuna Wool:** Potential for textile manufacturers to explore the production of high-end fabrics using unique and rare materials like Vicuna wool. - **Sustainable Luxury:** Growing demand for environmentally friendly luxury goods presents an opportunity for sustainable clothing brands to offer products made from ethically sourced materials. ### Where This Applies - **Luxury Fashion:** The luxury fashion industry could capitalize on the demand for high-priced, exclusive suits made from rare and expensive materials like Vicuna wool. - **Textile Manufacturing:** Textile manufacturers have the chance to tap into the market of producing premium fabrics like worsted Vicuna wool for luxury fashion brands. - **Sustainable Fashion:** Sustainable clothing brands have an opportunity to combine luxury and sustainability by using ethically sourced materials like Vicuna wool for their high-end products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Classic Tailored Wool Coats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gant-wool-blend-tailored-coat.md) - [Limitless Occasion Suits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aw24-suiting-collection.md) - [Adaptable Warm Weather Suits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luca-faloni-linen-suit.md) - [Elegant Men's Formalwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jack-victor1.md) - [Camel Hair-Made Sustainable Materials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cameluxe.md) - [Featherlight Ultra-Rare Down Jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eiderdown-puffer-jacket.md) - [Scotch Sipping Jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scotch-sipping-jacket.md) - [Luxurious Bed Comforters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxurious-bed-comforter.md) - [Distressed Luxury Knitwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/distressed-luxury-knitwear.md)
