Decorators, designers, and clothing manufacturers continue to demand high-performance fabrics for projects spanning the home décor and apparel universes. Whether it’s for wallcoverings or window treatments, athleisurewear or polo shirts, customers and trendsetters alike are turning to durable and hardworking – yet stylish and printable – textiles in more mainstream applications than ever before.
Sporty Apparel with Purpose
ISPO, a global sports advocate and consultancy, has written extensively about the increased acceptance and visibility of performance and athleisurewear for anyone from office workers to the most fashionable among us. Luxury brands including Louis Vuitton, Karl Lagerfeld, and Gucci are embracing sporty, yoga-inspired, and ultra-soft looks as part of their collections.
Vogue magazine even contends that high-performance women’s fashions on the links could be worn more in public due to trends like “sweat-wicking materials and more fashion-forward cuts.” Golf Monthly highlighted critical characteristics for men’s golf shirts – hints to on-trend apparel manufacturers – that would play well on the greens and in the boardroom, including moisture management, UV protection, and antimicrobial properties. Printability is in-demand, and TVF carries a serious selection of printable performance apparel textiles: https://www.tvfinc.com/printable-fabrics-put-golf-shirts-on-the-fairway/.
Home Décor Hype
Pepper Home, a digital community for bespoke home décor resources and inspiration, says an array of printed patterns on textiles like wallpaper, upholstery, and throw pillows are hot. Stripe, check, organic and geometric, and “grandmillennial” chic patterns are all popular pattern choices.
While printable patterns on textile substrates have been popular in recent years, especially for wallcoverings made with print-friendly inks and technology, new aesthetic blends are evolving in 2025 according to Homes & Gardens. TVF carries printable home décor textiles for window sheers, curtains, café curtains, and more.
