Tejidos Royo has launched its new Suave capsule collection for Spring/Summer 2018. Developed with TENCEL fiber, the Suave capsule S/S’18 includes fabrics of 100 per cent TENCEL as well as new blends with linen that for a special level of elegance and comfort. Royo draws in the past and future to the present, with its tagline: ‘Looking at the past with eyes of the future.’

Founded in 1903, Tejidos Royo has been a leader in Europe’s textile sector for more than a century. Its two production facilities in Valencia, Spain produce fabrics exported to customers in more than 30 countries. Calling denim the ‘protagonist’ of the collection, Royo’s versatility aided by TENCEL, in colors from baby blue to black and indigo in between. The collection takes its cues from three fashion trends which Royo describes as ‘Marine Soul’ inspired by nautical explorers, ship sails and sailor knots; ‘Adventure Dream’ touched by the unique romanticism of pioneering women and ‘Wild Life’ with a wild, Latin sensibility brought by tropical prints and exuberant summery color. This is another iteration of denim, where the ability of lightweight fabrics to flow contradicts their strength, something that shareholder Jose Rafael Royo attributes to the silkiness of TENCEL and its ability to work in blends.
