Gucci can’t get enough of Ryalux!
Coveted fashion house Gucci has once again turned to Ryalux – the UK’s leading authority on carpet innovation – to fit out the bespoke Gucci stand at the Mashref Watch and Jewellery Exhibition in Kuwait this Spring.
Ryalux will be supplying Gucci with carpet from one of its most popular luxury collections: Period Velvet. Carpets in the collection have a soft velvet finish, are crafted in two durable weights, and reinforced with Scotchgard™ protector. Period Velvet is therefore ideal for visitors to the Gucci stand, with its beautiful appearance perfectly in keeping with this high profile fashion brand.
In November 2007, Ryalux provided Gucci with a custom made carpet from the Ultimate Living Collection for its watch stand at the world famous Galeries Lafayette on Boulevard Haussmann in Paris. Gucci took advantage of Ryalux’s ‘any width up to seven metres’ service by ordering a 7m x 6m carpet in a rich charcoal colour created especially for Gucci through Ryalux’s exclusive colour match service. For the Kuwait exhibition, Gucci has opted for a 12m x 4m piece of Period Velvet in an 80 per cent New Zealand wool mix in Jasper Silver.
Advances in tufting and backing technology have meant that since August 2007 a number of Ryalux ranges have been available in any width up to seven metres, thereby eliminating the need for unsightly seams. The Ultimate Living Collection offer a wide selection of qualities that can be supplied in any colour chosen by the customer, as well as benefiting from Ryalux’s industry-leading extra wide service.
Claire Huby, Ryalux’s head of marketing, said: “That a client so design-centric as Gucci has approached us yet again to provide their carpet is testimony to Ryalux’s reputation for producing the finest quality floorcoverings. What’s more, Gucci specifically requested a Ryalux carpet for this exhibition - which is a huge compliment.”
