Fabric Options for Summer 2011 - as part of the Women's Style series by GeoBeats.

Hi, I am Erica Lurie with Garnish here in Portland, Oregon. I am going to tell you about some fabrics for the summer. You are going to see a lot of lace and sheers, and this fabric here is going to touch on both of those. It is a silk fabric and we made a cute little dress out of it. Here is another lace. This is a lace knit. Again it is going to be very popular.

We are also going to see a lot of prints and we love the fun prints that we are seeing for the summer. Here is an example of one of them. This print here will carry into the fall really nicely with a deeper red and just more fall colors. This print here picks up some of the orange and coral you are going to see this summer. Again the sheer is also going to be very popular.

And last print here is a nice black with some golds and purples and again a really pretty summer print. Last thing always in fashion are sustainable fabrics. So this here is a soy organic cotton Lycra, again in the orange that is very popular color for the season. It is a nice forgiving fabric that is great for all year around.
