Humankind and technology are reconciling, permitting the redevelopment of the human body with
integrated science. Innovation is finding inspiration in nature, where organic engineering provides
the basis for manmade design. Glacial landscapes evoke an icy range of cool greys and blues.
Indigo, navy and black create freezing depth while cream and clay add a touch of warmth to this
otherwise polar palette.

Intricate and complex folds take cue from
origami and architecture. Stiff jerseys are
cut and sewn while variegated rib patterns
create a strict linear effect. Apply
horizontally knit ottoman tuck stitches and
computer-engineered pleat stitches to
create this textured surface style.

New fibers will become more visible in
the marketplace with the use of clear
nylon threads and plastic textiles.
Recycled plastic bottles spun into yarns
will become a viable ecological solution
and also become more sophisticated
with new technologies and processes.
Yarn by Miroglio Textiles reflects the
potential of manmade fibers.
