Clerici Tessuto: A Century of Italian Textile Excellence Now Digitally Connected
A Fabric Affair community on Bsamply
Clerici Tessuto, one of the most renowned names in the global textile industry, is part of the A Fabric Affair community on Bsamply, the digital space dedicated to showcasing high-end textile and accessory suppliers participating in the US-based sourcing event.
With over 100 years of history, Clerici Tessuto has built a legacy of craftsmanship, creativity, and innovation, serving the world’s leading luxury fashion houses. Since 1922, the company has operated through a vertically integrated supply chain, combining in-house production capabilities with the expertise of top Italian textile partners to deliver premium fabrics for apparel, accessories, and home interiors.
By joining the A Fabric Affair community on Bsamply, Clerici Tessuto gained enhanced visibility and direct access to fashion brands and designers in the US and beyond, not just during the show, but year-round via their dedicated digital showroom.
Their collections span womenswear, menswear, accessories, and home furnishing fabrics, targeting diverse market segments from couture to prêt-à-porter, always with a clear focus on quality, service, and refined aesthetics.
A Legacy of Unparalleled Craftsmanship
Among Clerici Tessuto’s many product highlights are two extraordinary expressions of artisanal excellence:
- Cut Voided Velvet (Épinglé Velvet)
Created using historic “rod looms,” these velvets blend loop and cut pile to produce elegant, dynamic motifs on silk and even ultra-lightweight bases like chiffon. Rarely seen today, this weaving technique reflects a unique heritage that Clerici Tessuto has preserved and perfected. - Chiné Fabric
One of the very few mills in the world still capable of producing traditional chiné, Clerici Tessuto masterfully combines hand-printed warps with specialized looms to create this elusive fabric, recognized for its characteristic blurred, poetic contours.
By joining Bsamply, Clerici Tessuto became part of a broader network of suppliers and buyers actively working to reshape the future of sourcing, making it smarter, more transparent, and digitally accessible.
Through the showroom on the Bsamply platform, Clerici Tessuto can:
- Showcase their collections digitally, with detailed product sheets, storytelling, and high-resolution images,
- Streamline communication with buyers and designers, reducing response time and improving overall workflow,
- Receive and manage sample requests, enabling faster and more efficient decision-making for sourcing teams,
- Stay connected before, during, and after physical trade shows, ensuring continuous brand visibility and contact with current and potential clients.
The A Fabric Affair community within Bsamply is designed to extend the value of the event across the entire year, supporting long-term relationships, cross-border collaboration, and real-time product discovery, even when travel or in-person meetings aren’t possible.
Clerici Tessuto’s presence adds depth and value to this ecosystem, enriching the offering available to brands and designers looking for authentic, high-end materials with a story to tell and a future to shape.
We are proud to support their journey in the digital space, and to help make premium Italian textiles accessible, anytime, anywhere.
