Piece-dyed Tweeds
The processes put in place to produce our piece-dyed tweeds let us offer you fancy fabric qualities in your own colors.
Using plain weave fabrics, tie-dyed fabrics, or fabrics dyed with color reserves, these products are mainly composed of wool for winter collections and silk, linen, or cotton for summer collections. Depending on their composition, our piece-dyed fabrics are made using single or double dyeing.
In addition, at our partner, PLO-Ennoblisseur, the colors comply with the REACH standard and are GBTest certified.

Customization
Our dyed piece tweed collection offers designers the opportunity to fully customize their novelty fabrics with specific colorations, allowing them to create unique pieces that truly reflect their artistic vision.
Eco-Friendly Dyeing
In partnership with our dyeing partner, Ets Henri PLO, we ensure that all our coloring processes are environmentally responsible and compliant with REACH regulations. This guarantees the safety and environmental conformity of our products. We offer GOTS-certified, natural dyes that meet GB Test standards, attesting to their quality and durability. Wastewater treatment is carried out through biological purification using enzymatic processes (with naturally occurring bacteria in water), and residues are repurposed for agricultural composting.
By choosing our dyed piece tweeds, you access high-quality, customizable fabrics crafted with respect for environmental standards, perfectly suited to contemporary fashion demands.
Multiple Dyeing Techniques
We are skilled in various dyeing processes, including solid-colored fabrics, tie-dye, and reserve dyeing. This range of approaches allows us to create visual effects and textures that are both striking and unique, enriching every collection with a special character.
Seasonal Fabrics
For each season, our dyed tweeds are made from meticulously chosen materials: wool, mohair, alpaca, and merino for winter collections, and cotton and linen for summer collections. This thoughtful selection ensures high quality and maximum comfort, suitable for varying weather conditions.
The “piece-dyed” tweed is woven using a thread in its natural color (greige fabric), then dyed after weaving in full rolls. This process results in deep and uniform colors while preserving the texture and relief of the tweed.
Unlike traditional multicolored tweeds, where the yarns are dyed before weaving, the dyed piece tweed is produced by dyeing the raw fabric after weaving. This technique can also produce delicate shades by mixing fibers, making it ideal for a style that combines authenticity with a modern touch.
Our piece-dyed tweeds are perfect for making jackets, coats, skirts, or trousers. Their softness and elegant drape adapt beautifully to both classic cuts and contemporary designs.
All of our tweeds are entirely designed and produced in our factories in the Mazamet region, following an artisanal expertise passed down through six generations.

Fancy Weaving
In the Weaving Workshop, fancy weaves are woven on special loom assemblies where the reeds, the threading, and the knotting are determined by the variations of thread sizes present in each fabric. These technical specificities give our articles all their richness.
