Muttenz, December 20, 2010 - The mood of fashion is changing: there is a feeling of greater optimism and the color forecasters are seeing the seasonal warmth, enthusiasm and clarity of spring and summer as major influences on the new color palette and fashion trends for 2012. Interpreting fashion themes into reality is always a challenge, often made more difficult when applied to such a unique and varied substrate as leather. It is a challenge that Clariant welcomes and its trend and color forecasts of the immediate past have been extremely accurate. This was clearly evidenced by the offers on show at the most recent Le Cuir à Paris and Lineapelle exhibitions when the finished leathers for Autumn/Winter 2011/2012 were displayed.
