WASHABLE DENIM
Holland & Sherry is pleased to present a comprehensive new collection of luxurious denim fabrics. Popularised by Hollywood in the 1930’s, denim is as in demand today as it was then, but has undergone a few makeovers along the way. The collection encompasses three different qualities covering a variety of weights and a broad choice of both traditional, and contemporary colours. Construction Constructed from a 3/1 twill whereby a white weft thread passes under three indigo coloured warp threads and over one, producing a steep contrasting twill line.

Today, these weaving principles remain the same, and it is this technique we have adopted to weave two of the qualities introduced in this collection. Included in the collection are: An all-wool; a wool and cotton; and a wool, cotton, Lycra® quality. The first two qualities are woven in the traditional way, with a contrasting warp and weft. The third quality is a piece dye quality that has the added benefit of Lycra®. Lycra® provides any garment with extra comfort, makes it more durable and crease resistant, and allows it to keep its shape for longer. This collection hosts a whole range of colours, including traditional blues and contemporary greens, pinks and reds.

History Taking its name from the French city where it was created and first produced, “Serge de Nimes”, the traditional denim was specifically designed for the working man. With this in mind, denim had to be strong and durable, and with that came a considerable amount of discomfort that seemed to dissipate with age and wear.
The dye used was indigo, not for its aesthetic, fashionable appeal, but because it was cheap, readily available and concealed dirt. Indigo dye does not penetrate yarn or fabric, it merely sits on the surface producing a vivid and intense blue like no other. Inevitably over time, dye is lost and the vivid blue becomes faded. By this point the garment is comfortable, relaxed and worn looking; a look preferred by most, even to this day.
By contrast, Holland & Sherry offers three qualities of denim fabric with luxury appeal; all three are comfortable to wear and will retain their shape and beauty.
