The Wave

The Swedish fashion house, Tiger of Sweden has been working with innovative textiles for years now. This time I think they have achieved something monumental. 

Loro Piana fabric that is lighter and than any fabric ever used for a tailored jacket. 
For softness and durability, the wave is made from the thinnest merino wool, combined with silk that adds dimensional stability and improves durability. This mixture of fabrics enables extremely thin and flexible garments. The Tiger of Sweden jacket made of the wave can be folded and tucked into a suitcase, and come out WITHOUT A CREASE! 
Over the years, Tiger of Sweden has established excellent relations with the top Italian materials suppliers. This has enabled the use of the very best and most innovative materials. 
Loro Piana is the world’s largest supplier of Kashmir wool. Throughout six generations, it has supplied the major fashion houses with the best fabrics.  
From the very beginning in 1903, Tiger of Sweden has focused on good craftsmanship and careful selection of materials and has always upheld it's heritage and tailoring traditions. Without compromising it's core values the company made a repositioning in the early nineties, enhancing it's focus on fashion by taking the suit from the back to the street and establishing a profile that has since been a trensetter and a brand name closely associated with Swedish Fashion.

 

The Wave jacket from Tiger of Sweden will be available in retail stores from February 2009.
