The design department at Lelièvre has devised a knock-out tribute to the company's 100 years of designing and manufacturing beautiful fabric.
What you find before you is simply a beautiful design – sophisticated and terribly clever but somehow nonchalant.
Century is a contemporary design inspired by some of the best loved patterns in the Lelièvre collections. The oldest design components, in stylistic terms, appear in the deepest tones and gradually become more recent as the background of shaded satin becomes lighter in color. The sun rises on a new century!

Because the best textile companies know how to keep their heritage alive while living fully
