Invista explores athleisure with new Lycra brand

26/09/2016
Polymer and fibre manufacturer Invista used the recent Interfilière New York sourcing show (September 22) to present a new Lycra fibre brand targeted at intimate apparel manufacturers.

The Lycra Moves Athleisure platform is aiming to capitalise on the trend of the same name. It will allow brands and manufacturers to improve the performance of their intimate apparel items by incorporating fibre technologies that offer a range of performance benefits. 

Invista also showcased a capsule collection using the technologies that form part of the Moves Athleisure platform.

Among the technologies are Lycra Cooling, designed to improve cooling and moisture management; Lycra Soft Comfort, which offers increased flexibility; and Lycra Sport, devised to give good fit and support for activewear fibres.
