Going Tribal with Ikat
June 30, 2011
Ikat, or Ikkat, is the method of weaving that uses a resist dyeing process similar to tie-dye,The dye is applied prior to the threads being woven to create the final fabric pattern or design.
Even though we have seen this exotic looking print inspired by African and Indian cultures since last season, we are watching it come back again from the runway shows of Missoni and Gwen Stefani’s L.A.M.B to the showrooms of Kravet in New York and San Francisco.
Ikat is a great way to add color and texture to any design!
