    Choosing the right fabric

    Most of our gown styles come in a selection of three fabrics: Trilobal, Microfibre, and Ultima. Each fabric has a unique finish and texture, allowing you to create the perfect fit for your salon. All of our fabrics are water-repellent, durable and easy to care for.

  • Fabrics

    Trilobal

    A 100% nylon crinkle woven fabric that is very easy to care for. Retains the crinkle texture through washing and low temperature tumble drying. Lightweight, comfortable, water-repellent and quick drying.

    Available styles: Artisan, Rapport, Rapport Protect, Kimono, La Coupe, Show Gown

  • Fabrics

    Microfibre

    A 100% polyester fabric with a matte finish, giving a cotton look but with the easy-care benefits of polyester. The soft peachy texture makes this gown very comfortable for clients. Slightly heavier weight than the trilobal fabric and water-repellent.

    Available styles: Artisan, Rapport, Rapport Protect, Kimono, La Coupe

  • Fabrics

    Ultima

    Made from a mix of 50% nylon and 50% polyester to create a luxurious, silk-effect finish. The heaviest weight of all the three fabrics, Ultima is very hard wearing and comes in a range of shining, light reflecting colours.

  • Fastenings

    Choosing the right fastening

    The majority of our gowns come with a choice of fastening. There is no ‘best’ solution, merely your own preference. When choosing a fastening, make sure to consider how the client puts on the gown & the adjustability of each fastening.
