Technical fabrics with a fashion statement - that is exactly what apparel brands expect from fabric producers. In close cooperation with students of the Swiss Textile College STF and designer Annette Kohn, Swiss knitwear specialist ESCHLER has created an entire fashion collection of functional fabrics. Entitled "Fashion Meets Sports", the line fuses fashion and function presenting reptile looks, shimmering, fluid surfaces and sophisticated colours.

The world of fashion flirts with function - and vice versa: the world of sports takes more and more inspiration from fashion. The industry calls this trend "Fashion goes Function" or "Function goes Fashion", and it involves cutting lines, styling, as well as the choice of fabrics. Swiss knitwear specialist Eschler proves that a fabric manufacturer with technical expertise can produce an entire collection of high-end fabrics that meld fashion and function.
For all three layers, the Swiss brand offers sophisticated performance fabrics, separated into four colour and design schemes. The futuristic fashion statement, entitled "Fashion meets Sports", has been created by students of the Swiss Textile College STF and designer Annette Kohn.
