Double-face fabrics: comfort and versatility

DOUBLE-FACE FABRICS: TWO SURFACES, INFINITE STYLING POSSIBILITIES

Born from an innovative approach to technical circular knitting, Jersey Lomellina double-face fabrics feature two distinct surfaces within the same interlock construction—expressing a dualism that is both visual and functional. This fabric category allows designers to experiment with contrasting textures and shades, creating reversible garments with visible details and a contemporary aesthetic. An ideal solution for those looking to develop versatile collections defined by a strong material identity.

THE COMPLEMENTARY PROPERTIES OF REVERSIBLE FABRICS

Double-face textile architecture represents a direct evolution of the double-knit construction, making it possible to create two deliberately different fabric sides in terms of both appearance and function. This feature allows designers to develop tone-on-tone or contrasting colour effects, engineer softer or more compact textures depending on end use, and assign specific roles to each side of the fabric—such as one surface optimised for direct contact with the skin and the other designed to be showcased on the outside.

These design elements form a textile base with high creative value, ideal for layering effects and construction details that enhance volumes and panelling. At the same time, these technical fabrics retain the controlled elasticity, comfort and stability typical of interlock constructions—advantages that make them particularly suitable for the development of modern, high-performance collections.

THE DUAL SOUL OF JERSEY LOMELLINA B- FABRICS

Jersey Lomellina’s long-standing expertise in stretch circular knitting takes shape in the B- line: reversible fabrics that combine a soft handfeel with flawless fit and dual functionality. The distinctive feature lies in the innovative construction developed by JL technicians, which makes it possible to achieve—within a single fabric—an effect that was previously attainable only through bonding processes. With one dual-soul B- fabric, designers and stylists can create garments suited to a wide range of applications.

B-Natural, the most versatile of JL’s double-face fabrics, combines a cotton-like feel against the skin with the technical performance of polyamide, enabling applications that range from underwear to casualwear, and from fitness to athleisure. For sportswear and outerwear, B-Melange is the ideal choice, pairing a solid-coloured inner layer with a mélange-effect outer surface that follows the body’s movements naturally. Finally, for those seeking an exceptionally soft tactile feel combined with high breathability, B-Chic enables the creation of athleisure garments that remain dry at all times.
