BONFANTI FRATELLI
Imagine a world always full of new colors, materials, shapes that is mirrored in buttons collections. Imagine hand-sewed collection samples cards in which buttons are presented in line with the aesthetic and creative suggestions of the latest Made in Italy fashion trends. F.lli Bonfanti is a family-owned company, based in Torino – Italy, producing high quality fashion buttons since 1946. For more than 70 years, the company core business is to create high quality buttons made from different materials – from natural (Mother of pearl, corozo, wood, horn, coconut, bamboo …) to metal, polyester, nylon and abs. Nowadays, grasping the right challenges to protect and respect the environment, they design and produce articles made from recycled materials such as paper, hemp powder, corozo and are conducting studies and researches to use bioplastic materials.

Knopf Schäfer GmbH
Comfort and coziness continue to be trend-setting factors in the fashion industry, but this fall tendencies are shifting towards more “dressed-up” looks. Knopf Schäfer picks up on both themes in its current collection. Materials such as real corozo or real horn are interpreted in a sometimes rough, sometimes elegant way. Whereas iridescent mother-of-pearl looks will give your designs that certain glam factor!
