High-quality designer fabrics for sophisticated collections
Designer fabrics are high-quality fabrics that have been developed with high design standards. You can recognize them by their feel, drape, color depth, and clean finishing. At Stoffgroßhandel Armbrüster, they mainly come from Italy and often originate from the surroundings of well-known fashion brands.

The difference is already apparent at first touch. Good designer fabrics feel different, drape differently, and simply look more high-quality in the finished collection. For small labels and studios, such fabrics used to be hard to obtain as developing your own fabrics requires large quantities. Through selected remaining stocks this quality is now accessible from as little as 6 meters.
