Kingpins' Amsterdam edition showcases denim innovations

The Kingpins show was held in Amsterdam April 15 and 16. Amsterdam is increasingly becoming the denim capital of Europe. Much innovation and new developments were presented at the show disclosing denim novelties for Fall/Winter 2016-17. The new season had skinny fits for men as well as a slight return to denims that don’t employ stretch or employ it without looking like stretch fabrics. For women, flares were back as well as a more feminine version of the boyfriend cut that is tighter at the end and around the hips though always boxy and unisex.

Wintry looks and blends characterised many denim collections. Berto presented various melange effect denims, some employing a percentage of cashmere with selvedge. Denim Valley by Tejidos Royo presented various 100 per cent cotton denims with a woollen optic. Candiani Denim presented various soft touch melange denims that also employ nylon and tencel, though look like formal fabrics.

Orta presented its selection of cozy denims employing up to 20 per cent wool as well as a series of denims with a moleskin effect. Calik opted for a woolly aspect and uneven prints resembling wool surfaces. A series of micro designs and micro weaves were presented by ITV, Berto and Cone Denim. Cone is revamping its fabrics, including special ribbed-woven ones from the 1980s.
