Jacquard

Twenty years after the invention of the mechanical loom in 1785, the pioneering spirit of the French silk weaver Joseph-Marie Jacquard brought about a groundbreaking innovation. He found a way of raising and lowering the warp threads individually for each weft thread. What sounds highly technical opened up the possibility of weaving patterns of a fineness hardly imaginable until then into the fabric. That historic jacquard looms are still used today to produce authentic fabrics for church, theatre and Tracht stands as a symbol of the inventor's success. At a local weaving mill, Gössl combines the jacquard technique with traditional patterns of Tracht.

The Jackie collar

The collar, named after the stylish Jackie Kennedy, lends a touch of timeless elegance. This form of turn-down collar is used above all on Dirndl jackets.

Silk lining

is hypoallergenic and therefore ideal for allergy sufferers and asthmatics, as natural substances in silk keep house dust mites, mould and fungi away. It regulates moisture, warms in winter and cools in summer. Silk is also flame-retardant, kind to the skin and provides a luxurious feel when worn.
