"Our customers love this collection," says Suss Cousins, founder and designer, "and are delighted when they learn that our knits are made with Bamboo."
"Bamboo is incredibly soft, feels like silk, and is eco-friendly," says Suss, who designs clothing for the entertainment industry and has maintained a boutique store on Los Angeles' trendy Beverly Boulevard since 1985. "Suss2 consists of my most sought-after modern, classic knits," adds Suss.
"The Bamboo knits drape elegantly, resist wrinkling, and can be easily washed, making Suss2 fashions very desirable," says Suss. "Versatility is the cornerstone of the Suss2 collection. Every piece transitions seamlessly from day to evening, from the casual to the elegant."
Suss' creations have been featured in major retail outlets and upscale boutiques, including Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus, Barneys, Bergdorf Goodman, Fred Segal, Takashimaya, Anthropologie, Intermix, and Shopbop.
Why Is Bamboo Fabric Rapidly Gaining Market Share?
Bamboo fabric is a coveted and comfortable material that is:
• Soft, smooth, and luxurious.
• Feels and drapes like silk, but is less expensive, and more durable.
• Naturally anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and does not absorb odors.
• Cooler and more breathable than other fabrics.
