The jarring change from PJs and athleisure wear lines this time last year to more casual and whimsical collections makes having a reliable fabric source more valuable than ever
LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)
December 18, 2021
An October 20 article on Daily Mail reports on the UK’s latest fall fashion trends. Emphasizing feel-good and fun designs, today’s so-called “revenge dressing” trend—which references last year’s quarantine-inspired, stuck-at-home ensembles—make use of bright colors, sequins, and prints expressing a happy mood. Los Angeles-based fabric wholesaler Search for Fabric Inc. says the jarring change from PJs and athleisurewear lines this time last year to more casual and whimsical collections makes having a reliable fabric source more valuable than ever, especially as more trends are always just months away.
Search for Fabric says most retailers and designers plan their collections well in advance, which means they need steady access to specific types of fabric all year long, even fabrics that only tend to be worn seasonally. However, Search for Fabric notes that just as some of these trends tend to be predictable—like cozy fleece fabrics for cold-weather sweaters—others can pop up out of the blue. This only further proves the point that it’s critical to have a reliable fabric supplier to stay relevant in the fashion game, the fabric wholesaler adds.
Search for Fabric notes that in addition to having access to a full range of materials in different colors and prints, the ordering process must also be easy to use and convenient. Delays, incorrect orders, or inaccurate listings can prove catastrophic for a brand trying to get the next season’s collection started.
The wholesaler singles out online ordering issues as an example: many low-end suppliers fail to properly keep their online catalogs up to date, causing all sorts of problems whenever an order is made. Search for Fabric says that the best wholesalers use real-time inventory management systems, which list accurate counts of all their fabrics in terms of what’s available currently as well as what’s expected to be in stock in the future. Search for Fabric says this system streamlines the ordering process because brands know exactly what’s available when they order, so there’s little risk that an incomplete order will be delivered. Above all, Search for Fabric says brands’ success is tied to the reliability of their supplier.
