Velvet blue-print Gilet with relief embroidery and metal buttons
The Gilet appears in fine-pile velvet. The Blaudruck blue brings out the structure of the fabric wonderfully. Lederhosen embroidery has been worked as a fine relief. The metal buttons proudly bear the Lampasse. Lining of pure silk.
The Blaudruck – intense and expressive
The Blaudruck, the traditional blue resist printing, has a long tradition in Austria. It is a true craft that, perfected early on, has been preserved over centuries. With its strong colour and its contrast, traditional Blaudruck shows a fascinating presence at once. The numerous details that make up genuine Blaudruck arise above all from the demanding production process. For what is printed is precisely what will later not be dyed. Traditional motifs are printed on in precise handwork with pure acacia resin. The natural drying process that follows takes up to ten weeks. Only once it is certain that the resin can withstand the dye completely is the fabric immersed in the dye bath. Gössl takes up this heritage of textile refinement humbly, yet does not shy away from adding further chapters to this success story and from enriching traditional fabrics and refining techniques with new variations. Combined with new colours, Gössl shows Blaudruck as the adaptable all-rounder of Tracht.
From these traditional ingredients Gössl now derives an innovation that works out this depth of effect even more intensely. Linen and cotton make a fine velvet fabric that takes up the unique indigo blue of the Blaudruck and its many layers in a particular way. The natural structure of the fibres, resembling fine hairs, refracts incoming light in still more facets. Through the luminous surface of the velvet and its delicate folds, the slightly irregular dyeing of the Blaudruck is impressively combined with the natural shadows of the fabric. In their interplay, the nuances of the Blaudruck and the surface of the velvet recall the gentle swell of small waves on alpine mountain lakes, which – now more, now less – allow a view of their bed.
