Gentle Retro
Gentle Retro combines strong earth tones such as a rich olive and orange with a radiant turquoise, giving the collection a subtle freshness. Motifs such as ornaments and paisleys become ideal designs for summer due to the colour combinations.

Palm Springs
Palm Springs – the name says it all. Various palm tree motifs are interpreted in a wide variety of ways with summery colours. The colours ranges from a strong rasberry pink to noble orange nuances and shades of green.

Colour Up
Colourful – eye-catching – fancy! This is the theme of Colour Up. Strong, intense colours meet striking designs. Colour blocking and comic elements are not to be missed. Sporty elastic and ribtapes complement the theme perfectly.
