Brentano's Festive Gala Collection Features Bold Colors

WHEELING, IL, September 03, 2010

When creating textiles, Brentano keeps a keen eye toward balancing the classic and contemporary. Marking the second half of their 20th anniversary, the fall 2010 Gala collection pays added attention to playfulness while maintaining sophistication. Both Bubbly, a festive, small-scale pattern in cheerful colors, and Holiday, a fun interpretation of vertical stripes in saturated hues, showcase Brentano's ability to update classic patterns with modern colors.

The 54" upholstery Bubbly offers wearability and versatility. Available in bold hospitality colors like the teal Effervescence and pink Rose, or adaptable neutrals such as Asti and Chardonnay, this bright pattern passes over 75,000 double rubs. Holiday is a 53" artwork-inspired upholstery with narrow vertical stripes woven from a blend of viscose and cotton for a soft hand, and an end-and-end polyester warp that provides precise color. Colors range from the tropical Coral Reef and Cabana to the deep shades of City Lights and Peninsula.
