The House of a thousand Fabrics. A few days ago, being avid Springsteen fans, we were listening to his just released new album. One of the songs, a beautiful rendition of his ability to explain how he connects with us, was called House of a thousand guitars. We laughed, as we were preparing our new website to sell over a thousand Fabrics left over from Ranges over the past few years, and were searching for a name. Thus, The House of a thousand Fabrics was born.
To you, they are just Fabrics. But to us, every Fabric told a story…. and every colour. As we were itemising and photographing each colour we were reminiscing on how it was originally used, the winners, the disappointments, how each and every Fabric for us had its own unique journey and a place in our own personal history. They have been carefully sourced from all over the world including our wonderful memories of so many visits to Premier Vision in Paris. Every Fabric we have is left over for different reasons…. maybe overbought , sometimes sampling that didn’t work , successful lines that one day came to the natural end of their life , minimums that couldn’t be reached…. for those of you who have been in Fashion a long time this will be familiar to you.
But for those starting out, you will be embarking on your own creations, writing your own stories with every purchase of our left over Fabric. You might not even be in Fashion…. maybe it’s for home furnishing , maybe Theatre costumes , wherever your creativity is taking you we would love to share your ideas and look forward to you enjoying each meter as much as we have.
In the past, we were able to touch and feel fabrics, imagine how they could best be used. We would go to the shops all over the world and see how others were creating ideas, using this for inspiration into our own offerings. How times have changed…. now it is so much harder, Online Fashion bringing its own new set of challenges, which we must all adapt to.
We hope you enjoy our offering to you…. please share your special creative moments with us…. we are The House of a thousand Fabrics.
