ISKO SS26: redefining denim through innovation and comfort, with responsibility at its core.

ISKO’s SS26 collection represents the next chapter in denim innovation, combining sustainability, performance, and creative versatility. This collection reaffirms ISKO’s commitment to circular fashion, introducing fabrics that challenge conventional boundaries while meeting the growing demand for responsible design.

The SS26 collection offers a range of advanced fabric technologies designed to cater to diverse needs with the highlight of the collection being ISKO Comfort2, a fabric designed for unparalleled comfort and versatility. By combining the softness and flexibility of knit fabrics with the durability of woven denim, Comfort2 introduces a weave, with stretch in the warp and in the weft, that moves effortlessly with the body. This technology ensures both freedom of movement and exceptional resilience, making it ideal for functional wear, everyday comfort, and forward-thinking design. Then, there is ISKO™ Multitouch, a single fabric offering multiple textures and styles, ideal for bold silhouettes like wide-leg and balloon designs and ISKO™ Iconic, a transformation of classic denim through washable finishes that amplify texture, shine, and contrast, ideal for modern and vintage-inspired designs.

At the heart of the collection is ISKO’s use of Next-Gen recycled materials powered by RE&UP. These materials, derived from textile waste, deliver the same performance, durability, and luxury feel as virgin fibers – showing that sustainability does not mean compromise.

With SS26, ISKO demonstrates how denim can continue to evolve, balancing innovation with sustainability and supporting a future where fabrics are both high-performing and responsible.

The AFTERLIFE Project by Oscar Wentz

The AFTERLIFE Project by Oscar Wentz

Pioneering a Playful Rebellion Against Fast Fashion

SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS

12. January 2025

In an industry swamped by fast fashion and ever-changing trends, Oscar Wentz’s AFTERLIFE project has hit the reset button. The AFTERLIFE project is a rallying cry that puts sustainability front and center. The project is not only turning cast-off clothes into streetwear but it is also challenging us to examine our own consumption habits and rethink what we consider “waste,” in our closet – and ultimately, the world around us.

From Waste to Wonder: A Playful Approach to Serious Change
AFTERLIFE is more than a fashion line; it’s a movement. It started as a response to the drawbacks of fast fashion – cheaply made pieces designed to be worn once and forgotten. Created entirely from pre-existing clothing pieces, the project shines a light on the excessive waste produced by fast fashion. By reimagining and reconstructing these discarded garments, what began as a single initiative has evolved into an entire collection and a growing movement, built on playful and simple designs that encourage people to try their hand at sewing.

Oscar’s design philosophy is encapsulated in his desire to tackle the waste streams of Europe’s textile industry. Rather than ignoring piles of unwanted clothing, he sees them as raw materials brimming with possibility. “As a designer, I am committed to transforming the textile industry’s approach to sustainability by addressing its waste streams head-on,” he explains.

Turning what was once considered “trash” into cherished fashion statements, the collection targets young individuals not only aesthetically but also through the simplicity of its cuts and stitches, encouraging them to engage in making and sewing.

Each piece in the AFTERLIFE collection serves as a testament to what can be achieved when creativity meets responsibility. Oscar offers not only a selection of pre-made repurposed garments but also provides step-by-step instructions on how to recreate these designs at home. His vision extends beyond mere recycling; he aims to inspire a circular economy where sustainability is embedded in every aspect of fashion – from design to consumption.

“As a designer, I am committed to transforming the textile industry’s approach to sustainability by addressing its waste streams head-on.”

But collaboration is key to Oscar’s vision. He works with Sympany, a company dedicated to collecting and redistributing donated clothes, he’s shown how we can harness what we already have instead of churning out new stuff. It is a partnership that gives old garments a second shot at life, which is right in line with Oscar’s goal of making sustainability both practical and fun.

Also, Oscar firmly believes that sewing should be accessible to everyone – even if you’ve never threaded a needle before. That’s why he hosts workshops and provides easy-to-follow tutorials, giving people the confidence to transform their old clothes at home. These hands-on sessions aren’t just about mending seams; they foster a sense of community and bring back the joy of crafting something unique.

He’s also got his eye on a bigger picture: a circular economy where creativity and accountability go hand in hand. By encouraging playful experimentation, Oscar makes the idea of circularity in fashion far less intimidating and the concept of circularity in the textile industry more approachable.

Engage with Oscar Wentz and AFTERLIFE
AFTERLIFE isn’t just about making old clothes look cool; it’s about proving we can create a sustainable, vibrant fashion culture that values originality over mass production. And in Oscar’s world, anyone with a bit of curiosity – and a willingness to pick up a needle and thread – is welcome to join.

ADDITIONALS NEWS

Exploring the New Collection of Wohlatz

11. January 2025

The latest developments for buttons, ribbons, decorative stones, closures, linings, lace, embroidery, interlinings as well as labeling and branding solutions will be presented by around 150 leading international ingredients and accessories suppliers in the ADDITIONALS Area at MUNICH FABRIC START. Explore some of the novelties here in our ADDITIONALS blog posts:

In recent years, the fashion industry has increasingly centered on sustainability and environmental protection. Many collections combine street art with floral motifs to draw attention to ecological challenges. Flowers symbolize not only nature and biodiversity but also call for a fundamental shift in how we approach the environment. Fashion thus becomes an expression of messages and values advocating for the protection of our ecosystem.

Moreover, fashion trends reflect emotional needs. In times of uncertainty, such as during the pandemic, people seek expression, comfort, and inner harmony. Future fashion trends may focus more on the psychology of color and the interaction of fabrics with individual personality, while the freedom of self-expression becomes increasingly important.

Nostalgia also plays a central role in fashion, often reinterpreting historical styles to create a bridge between tradition and innovation. Fashion pieces are intended to embody elegance and a personal touch.

A global trend is also emerging that seeks to bring fashion into a more responsible and inclusive context. New generations demand social responsibility and ethics within the industry. Inclusivity is defined not only by size diversity but also encompasses cultural and ethnic differences.

A trend toward minimalist elegance is reflected in metallic accessories with clean lines and sustainable materials. As Wohlatz Additonals suppliers Gruppo Uniesse, VStudio, Unizip, Texcart, Achille Valera Lissoni, Erre Bi.Bi. blend nostalgic influences with modern techniques and sustainable design in their Spring.Summer 26 collections, resulting in exciting and varied fashion. Colours play an important role, both in monochromatic and bold combinations, reflecting the shift toward responsible and creative expression in fashion.

“Nostalgia also plays a central role in fashion, often reinterpreting historical styles to create a bridge between tradition and innovation. Fashion pieces are intended to embody elegance and a personal touch.”

WOOL MATTERS BY BEATRIZ ISCA

WOOL MATTERS BY BEATRIZ ISCA

Unraveling the Threads of Change

SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS

10. January 2025

Although wool has been transformed into a global industry, so much of Europe’s wool still ends up discarded each year – overlooked, undervalued, and dismissed as waste. However, Beatriz Isca sees wool through a different lens and ‘Wool Matters’ stands as a powerful reminder of how much we can learn from something as seemingly simple as wool.

Wool Matters is the master’s thesis project of the multidisciplinary designer Beatriz. ‘It began with a belief in wool’s power to manifest the intricate connections between land, animals, and people. Beatriz discovered wool’s capacity as a universal language, transcending social, generational, and cultural barriers, and serving as a bridge that connects diverse lives and stories. Her work in ‘Wool Matters’ adopts a post-humanistic lens to understand the symbiotic relationships between people, animals and land.  Aware of human and non-human actors in wool’s ecosystem, she has engaged with different actors in the local wool landscape to uncover opportunities and address gaps. She is highlighting wool’s inherent worth, with the hope to encourage a more circular, respectful approach to textiles—one that sees humans, animals, and the environment as interconnected parts of a shared ecosystem.

“The devaluation of local wool in Europe reflects the anthropocentric view and the unsustainable ways of living of modern society, that perpetuates the celebration of capitalism at the cost of ecological degradation and social exploitation,” she says. Looking beyond traditional profit-driven industries and focusing on local and craft-based practices, Beatriz aims to redefine our relationship with wool—and, in turn, with nature.

When it comes to community-centric sustainable practices, Beatriz advocates for a shift back to natural rhythms—those governed by seasons and the meticulous pace of handcrafting—encouraging a more humane and ecologically mindful way of living. Her mission extends beyond mere dialogue; it’s about crafting a vision that repositions decision-making into the hands of local communities. By involving designers more deeply in societal roles, Beatriz believes in empowering communities to challenge and reshape the structures that define our world.

“The devaluation of local wool in Europe reflects the anthropocentric view and the unsustainable ways of living of modern society, that perpetuates the celebration of capitalism at the cost of ecological degradation and social exploitation.”

Pushing for collaboration, Beatriz, a researcher and a communicator, is not just raising awareness but also fostering tangible connections. Through craft-based practices, she amplifies the value of local wool, urging citizens to partake actively. Her workshops and collaborations are not just about crafting with wool; they invite participants to feel, reflect, and react to the broader implications of consumption and production that surround this ancient material.

Bringing ‘Wool Matters’ to Munich meant searching for local collaborations which resulted in weaver Lukas Gschnitzer and local yarns from Rauwerk will be part of the project’s presentation, showcasing the value of local wool. Rauwerk firmly believes in working with, and not against, Mother Nature. Their yarn comes from local Merino sheep and is spun at a family run mill just south of Munich.

FABRIC HIGHLIGHTS & MATERIAL NOVELTIES FOR SPRING.SUMMER 26 – PART II

9. January 2025

At the upcoming MUNICH FABRIC START, around 500 international suppliers will present their material innovations for all apparel segments in the FABRICS Area. The complete product portfolio of fashionable woven and knitted fabrics made of wool, cotton, silk, blends and functional fibres will be presented here. For the Spring.Summer 26 season, we present some new products and highlights from international producers in our FABRICS blog posts:

DUTEL CRÉATION

The new jacquard collection of DUTEL for the Spring/Summer 2026 season is built around four main themes:

COQUETTE is a very feminine, almost “girly” theme featuring classic motifs of small flowers, lace and toile de Jouy, all revisited in a brighter, more saturated version. Fluid fabrics inspired by lingerie and flat or stretch cottons for comfort, sometimes with lurex.

OXYGENE is an all-purpose theme: a fusion between the great outdoors and the urban side, for robust fabrics that give pride of place to Jeans. The colors are natural and inspired by plants. A capsule is developed in this theme with more technical, airy fabrics composed of iridescent yarns.

TWIST is a very colorful theme, with a particular emphasis on colored lurex. Designs alternate between graphic motifs and naive flowers, often in two colors. Fabrics are fairly dense and matte, enriched with stretch for comfort.

GOA is a midsummer theme with flowing fabrics. Designs combine large flowers in intense colors with more ethnic or rustic jacket fabrics. Colorful lurex adds a touch of refinement and sophistication. In addition to these trendy themes, they also offer timeless items such as animal skins, geometric patterns, cocktail wear and tweeds.

DUTEL CRÉATION

PONTETORTO

The quite place

Pontetorto presents the Spring Summer 2026 collection. A place that transcends conventions to accommodate a new concept of confidentiality. Here everything is harmonious and assonant, diversities become fluid, opposites intertwine. The Quiet Place is the textile representation of an inclusive embrace where experiences, sharing and new stylistic explorations coexist.

At the centre is Pontetorto’s typical savoir faire, natural, virgin or recycled fibres. It is a collection of yarn-dyed and piece-dyed plain effects.

The colours are delicate but never predictable. White, sand, blue and black are accompanied by a family of soothing pastels. From icicles to colour blocks, which are more decisive and daring. The overview of the collection ranges from the most delicate proposals where colours blend to the play of sharp contrasts expertly designed to light up surfaces.

Jersey :

Important and three-dimensional structures for outerwear, with textures that are renewed thanks to fancy yarns and à jour aspects. Remarkable work is done with cotton sweatshirts for linen and viscose jackets with an extraordinary compactness and sumptuous hand. Yarn-dyed jacquards are designed for a tailoring approach enhanced by shiny or lurex threads.

Woven:

Plays of macro-structures with large fancy yarns for plain and faux plain effects. Fuzzy jacquards mixed with viscose and linen in combination with fancy yarns for tailored use. Compact but light-weight solids for tailoring embellished with glossy finishes or a glossy finish obtained from bright viscose. Wrinkled aspects obtained with stainless steel yarns and natural aspects obtained with Lyocell by special processing.
