WHAT IS THE MAXXAM CRINKLE FABRIC?
The brain child of Rosemary Moore graduate of the Royal College of Art. A nylon and elastane fabric composition that's so adaptable that if made into a swimsuit can fit 7 sizes in one.
In the late 80s, MAXXAM took the fashion world by storm as it was the era of body-conscious clothing.
It's a multipurpose fabric that can be used for swimwear, dailywear and activewear, made in a variety of fibre compositions.
It's finished tubular to produce a seamless fabric that supports the body with maximum comfort.
In 2014 MAXXAM made a come back into the limelight, however it has been in production for nearly 40 years. It’s now worn by the new generation or children of the mothers who wore it in the 80s....
