Applying Our European Textiles to Your Collections

Updated: Jul 31, 2022

Our European mills offer textiles that are intended for women’s ready-to-wear. We have extensive collections of embroideries, laces, silks, wovens, prints, and more.


When you view our collections, there may be a fabric that inspires your creativity and embodies your vision. Alternatively, you may have something specific in mind, or you may want to make a change to an existing fabric. We have the unique ability to customize existing pieces.

For instance, if there is a print or a metallic lace that you would need in a specific color, we can apply that for you. We can change the colorways, add optional embroidered treatments, or even change the size of images. If you have a vision or even a photograph of something you would like developed into a fabric, we can assist with creating an original textile. Our minimums can be as low as 10 yards so it is accessible for smaller lines or independent designers.


From Textiles to Closet


Women’s Ready to Wear - Our textiles are created for designers to use in their ready to wear collections. This can be anywhere from blouses, dresses, and sweaters, to accessories and bridal gowns.


Couture Fashion - We work with fashion houses such as Carolina Herrera, Oscar de la Renta, Naeem Khan, and Tory Burch. Our textiles often show up on the runway and shortly after, celebrities.


Bridal - We work with bridal companies such as Vera Wang, Amsale, Danielle Frankel, or Monique Lhuillier to help source or develop specific laces, embroideries, silks, and more. We understand the importance of customizing a wedding gown and are here to help with the intricate details that go into one for the big day.


Footwear - Our custom jacquard fabrics showed up in footwear designer Sarah Flint’s line for her Emma pump, a classic construction that has been worn by Meghan Markle in various colors.


Neckwear - We create and source textiles for ties for companies such as Brooks Brothers, Ralph Lauren, and J Crew. We also help to develop scarves and scarf finishings.


Handbags - Our sturdier textiles make for great, high quality and sustainable handbag materials.


Where Have You Seen Our Work?


You may have seen some of our work and didn’t even know it! First Lady Michelle Obama wore a Thom Browne dress with a print developed with our agency during the 2013 inauguration. Taylor Swift wore one of our sequined fabrics on a black, one-shoulder dress, and Rhianna was seen in a red sequin number by Nina Ricci. All textiles we helped to develop. Our fabrics have even gone on tour. Beyonce went on stage in a French lace bodysuit for Balmain on her Formation World Tour. Lady Gaga’s rose-covered mermaid dress for the fall/winter 2016 Yolan Cris collection was worn during the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.

At Erich Soldat Textile Company, Textiles are our Passion!

Let us help you find the perfect European fabrics to develop your fashion line. We want to help you create art in the form of fashion that portrays your unique vision.
