Brentano’s Soft, Residential Textiles Go Bold

CHICAGO - Oct. 1, 2015 - PRLog -- “After 25 years, we’re still exploring new horizons and pushing ourselves aesthetically and technically. Textures like Dashing and patterns like Arrow are new for us. We wouldn’t have been that bold five years ago — much less ten years ago or more,” said Design Director Iris Wang of the Jubilee collection, Brentano’s 25^th anniversary collection of 20 contract and residential textiles.

An updated plaid and the next generation of a graphic chevron, respectively, Dashing and Arrow bring a personal warmth to Jubilee’s cool, contemporary styling. Thick, viscose linen ropes and viscose chenille yarns pop up in both the warp and weft of Dashing, along with many more cotton, polyester and acrylic yarns, to give the 54” cheeky check pattern’s six colorways luxurious depth and dramatic flair. Equally bold, Arrow overlays Brentano’s felted wool Nomad with large-scale rayon embroidery. At 54”, Arrow’s four classic colorways each coordinate with a Nomad solid; and the embroidery yarns pass 50,000 double rubs (Wyzenbeek, Cotton Duck) for creating dynamic, layered spaces in a wide range of interiors.
