At AG, we believe exceptional silhouettes begin with exceptional fabrics. Our passion for creating premium-quality styles has led us to discover some of the finest fabrics from around the world. This spring, we explored the intricate beauty of Indigo Stretch Jacquard, a Japanese fabric that balances artistry and history with innovation and craftsmanship.
This textured pattern is not only superior to surface-printed illustrations, but the fabric achieves a unique industrial characterization that echoes the individual expression of jeans in each of our looks.
What Is Jacquard?
Jacquard is a light-textured fabric that stands out with its intricate raised pattern, creating a unique sense of depth and elegance. Inspired by the Wabi Sabi practice of embracing imperfection and natural beauty, the raised three-dimensional pattern of this textured fabric is reminiscent of ocean waves and their natural flow. Curves and ripples are meticulously woven into the fabric, creating a unique sense of depth and elegance.
Despite its textured appearance, Jacquard is a relaxed, breathable fabric. The stretch in the fabric gives you ease of movement in every step, making it perfect to stay comfortable and stylish as you run errands, meet up with friends for after-hours drinks, and enjoy the warmer seasons.
How Are The Wave-Like Textures Created?
Each thread tells a story of precision, patience, and passion - a labor of love that stems from time-honored traditions - resulting in a fabric as enduring as it is beautiful. Using special fabric shuttle looms, Indigo-dyed yarns are carefully woven in, creating a rich texture that is superior to surface-applied designs. This meticulous dedication adds depth and versatility to the fabric, making it a coveted fashion piece.
