It's Summer 2004 and the eyes of the world will soon be on
sports in Athens, Greece, and travel to and from the events
in that city.
Travelers and the sports-minded people alike will be searching
for clothes that are comfortable, lightweight, perform well,
and most important, are BREATHABLE.
That's where acetate fits in!
Casual clothes of l00
percent acetate and acetate-blended fabrics tend to
be light, silk-like, feel soft to the skin and let air
breathe in! Acetate is the perfect fiber for packing,
traveling and for attending a myriad of different events,
whether one is inside or outdoors.
In an article in the June 24,2004, SEATTLE INTELLIGENCER
newspaper in the USA, Georgia Shonk-Simmons, president
and chief merchandising officer of the prestigious Coldwater
Creek Stores in the U.S. said,
"For anyone who travels, I favor a
different fabric -- a "travel knit" blend of acetate
and spandex. It's great for working women too. I call this
travel knit "the No. 1 fabric for easy care."
And there are lots of other
types of acetate blends that receive accolades such as that
of Ms. Shonk-Simmons. In these days of constant travel, moving
from one environment to the other, and from warmer temperatures
to indoor air conditioning...these are all things to think
about when one is selecting a wardrobe of acetate to travel
to Greece and other places this summer!
