What differentiates the Oskar and Milano collections?
The fabrics from the OSKAR collection are stronger and thicker, so they hold their shape better. They are therefore suitable, for example, for tracksuit dresses with puff sleeves. When looking for an appropriate cuffing colour for a french terry fabric from the OSKAR collection, always check whether the cuffing is from the OSKAR collection and continue searching by colour number to ensure that you find the same shade.
Main features of the OSKAR collection:
- French Terry OSKAR: 170 cm wide, composition is 95% cotton and 5% elastane.
- Jersey OSKAR: 165 cm wide, composition is 93 % cotton and 7% elastane.
The Milano collection, on the other hand, is softer and more elastic. You will appreciate its softness when sewing underwear or undershirts, for example. When combining the colour of different materials from the Milano line, follow the color name - you will always find the right shade. The materials, however, must be from the Milano collection
In contrast to the OSKAR series, this collection contains designer fabrics.
Main features of the Milano collection::
- French terry Milano: 150 cm wide, composition is 95% cotton and 5% elastane.
- Jersey Milano: 150 cm wide, composition is 95 % cotton and
5% elastane.
What does № mean for Oskar collection fabrics?
The symbol № represents the international designation of a number, so this symbol is used instead of the inscription "number".
With the help of these number designations you can find the exact colour shade between the different materials of the Oskar collection. Following this number ensures that fabrics with the same colour designation will come to you in the same colour.
