One of the fabrics used on the collection is a jersey fabric that looks like denim. Lynne Webber, managing director of Marina Rinaldi said about the fabric: “This allows for extra comfort”. She also added: “It’s very difficult for plus-size customers to find the right fit with denim and we wanted to use comfortable fabrics that have a super recovery quality and dress all silhouettes.”

It’s blue time! Marina Rinaldi chose only top quality fabrics, featuring high performance comfort and fit. #MFW #MarinaRinaldi
