Edition Tirreno: Spring/Summer 2017 trends DOWNLOAD PDF

Edition Tirreno Spring/Summer 2017 forecast by BASF Leather Chemicals validates some pre-conceived colour choices, while alluding to new colour inspiration and direction. Intended to inspire tanners, the four colour directions are very versatile and can be adapted to designs for shoe upper leather, bag leather and garment leather.

BASF Leather Chemicals has outlined four leather trends for the spring/summer 2017 season to act as a guide for customers to be able to manufacture leather that is at the forefront of fashion.

The colours make up romantic, urban ranges and are, at the same time, evocative of tones inspired by nature. The season’s four macro-trends are: Eco-Balance, Lyrical Nature, Global Beats, and Digital Vision.

“Though consumer preferences and lifestyles are constantly changing spawning a desire for fresh colour palettes in leather design, style and colour coordination remains a consistent goal,” said Alex Wartini, BASF’s vice president for Leather Chemicals.
