THE BEST OF INTIMA – BIANNUAL – FEBRUARY 2008 - (Page 128)

Exclusive T-shirt No.4 The Intima limited T-shirt saga continues with the revelation of the fourth model in January 2008. Once again this adventure has seen the participation of the indefatigable Italian designer Paola Ruffini and Vartes producers, specializing in seamless items and natural fibers. Intima's Cotton in winter For the fourth edition of the sensational Intima T-shirt which has become a lingerie stylist must-have, Paola Ruffini has once again opted for a seamless solution offering smoothness and flexibility in size. For this latest example the stylist worked on the concept of modernity and romanticism, two apparently contrasting concepts which however she was able to elaborate side by side with great ability, taking inspiration from the large-knit decorated pullovers of northern Europe. Geometric patterns with diamond shapes on the sleeves and branches with small flowers developing from the bottom upwards, encased in vertical lines for an elegant finish. An additional stylish detail, the sleeves are smooth and tight at the extremities, to be worn neatly folded back or casually rolled up. The three-dimensional black images stand out boldly from the golden beige background for an ultra-refined effect. For the production of the fourth Intima T-shirt Paola Ruffini and Michela Alquati have for the second time chosen Italian manufacturers Vartes, specializing in seamless articles and natural fibers. The T-shirt is made of 85% cotton, 10/ polyester, and 5% elasthane. How to get a T-shirt The limited series of Intima’s T-shirt no.4 will be given to all industry professionals on the Intima/Network Dessous stand at the Paris Salon de la Lingerie. Only one T-shirt will be available per person due to the limited number.
