The surissimo 100% fine suri research fabric opened NZ Fashion 2010 week under well known New Zealand designer Laurie Foon. Laurie Foon from Starfish is passionate about eco fashion and sourcing product made sustainably in NZ. 

 It was the first 'Eco' Fashion Week show held in New Zealand. The garments and fabric were very well received and since this time we have had enquiries from designers in Sweden, USA, Germany, Austalia and the USA to purchase the fabric. "Twist", the international magazine for luxury fabrics, yarns and fibres requested and wrote an article heralding the development of this new luxury fabric.
