Lecture Luxury Hair Fibres

Luxury Hair Fibres

  

The most expensive and highly prized fibres in the textile world are obtained from animals living in cold climates,

These hollow hair fibres are excellent thermal insulators and have a soft handle.

Naturally gathered moult hair from farmed fox and mink can be spun and used for excusive knitted, woven or felt products.

Muskox, opussum, rabbit, camel, vicuna and cashmere kel goats all supply luxury fibre.



Winter 2012 “Lusso Luminoso” collection by Gasparre Cashmere which never ceases to baffle us with its uncompromisable quality pieces made of butter feather-light soft pure white cashmere from the Kel goat, only found in remote high altitude regions of Central Asia.
