The designers of the [American Fashion house](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wood-for-the-trees), sisters Kate and Laura Mulleavy, directly translated their runway inspirations into usable [fabrics and textiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/feel-form). However, their influence doesn't stop at the runway, as the fabrics in the Rodarte Knoll Luxe collection are named after poets E.E. Cummings, John Keats, W. H. Auden and Dorothy Parker. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.0/10 - Popularity: 54% | Activity: 29% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/home) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Haute Couture Fabric:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Collaborate with fashion designers to create exclusive fabric collections for interior design and upholstery. - **Runway-inspired Textiles:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop fabrics and textiles that translate fashion runway inspirations into usable and customizable materials for various industries. - **Poet-inspired Collections:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Fuse the worlds of fashion and literature by creating fabric collections named after famous poets, appealing to a niche market. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Expand design offerings to include fabric collections for interior design and upholstery, targeting a broader customer base. - **Interior Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Partner with fashion designers to create exclusive fabric collections that bring runway-inspired aesthetics into the world of home decor. - **Textile Manufacturing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop advanced techniques and technologies that enable the production of customizable fabrics and textiles, meeting the demand for intricate designs and unique patterns. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Colorful Artful Textile Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nick-cave-collection.md) - [Minimalist Fashion Brand Housewares](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-goods-collection.md) - [Sustainable Luxe Pet-Friendly Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lay-lo.md) - [Opulent Floral Decor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-of-hackney.md) - [Hand-Knotted Rug Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hare-klein.md) - [Cult Film-Inspired Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beetlejuice-beetlejuice1.md) - [Luxe Textured Upholstered Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kenmare.md) - [Luxury Resort Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteurs-resort-2025-collection.md) - [Decadent Lounge Seating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poet-sofa.md)
