Thibaut Marries Style and Durability in Calypso: a Collection of Coordinated Sunbrella Indoor/Outdoor Woven Fabrics

Feb 2016

Bring the outdoors in with Calypso, a collection of coordinated Sunbrella indoor/outdoor woven fabrics. This collection is a natural extension of Thibaut's offering in this category of performance. Sunbrella has been the most recognized and trusted name in performance fabrics for over 50 years. The high-performance fabrics in this vibrant collection are lightfast and stain resistant, offering long-lasting beauty and durability. Pairing a satisfying hand with durability and performance, Thibaut's Sunbrella collections are specifically engineered to be soft, luxurious fabrics that incorporate Thibaut signature style.

The Calypso collection features hip geometrics, luxurious textures, plush chenilles, matelasses and versatile sheers, providing countless combinations for a spirited and custom look. Calypso is Thibaut's second exclusive collection of Sunbrella indoor/outdoor woven fabrics, following the success of the Portico collection launched in March 2015. Patterns in the Calypso collection have been designed to coordinate with color families featured in the Portico collection including peony, aqua, spring green and marine blue, and also features punctuating cool neutrals and a classic black and white story. All patterns in the Calypso collection are exclusive Thibaut designs.

Bold graphics and geometrics are ever-popular. Multi-colored geometric patterns in the Calypso collection are perfect for pairing with other fabrics. Dynamic 3-colored patterns like Geode Ikat and Zipper are festive and perky in a usable scale. Other fun shapes include retro-like ovals in Ellipse and Sarah Spot, a playful animal spot with tonal shades of color. Tulsi Paisley was adapted from a Thibaut wallpaper in the Caravan collection. This intricately detailed paisley pattern shows the beauty of the weave. On the novel end of the spectrum, Misha is an offbeat print inspired by textile artwork from the 50s. This funky jungle cat adds a surprising and unexpected hint of drama to the collection.

Cottony and quilted matelasse constructions are heavy and soft which makes them ideal for bedding and headboards. Sashay Matelasse is a simple chevron that adds just the right amount of movement in 4 soothing colorways. Named after the ornamental arrangement of flower beds, Parterre is a statement-making geometric. The Calypso collection features unbelievably soft and plush fabrics. Catalina is sumptuous and fluffy herringbone of thick multi-toned yarns. The variegated flecks of color make this fabric look as rich as it feels. Mirabel is an ultra-luxurious chenille that is only available in 1 bright white colorway. A subtle, large herringbone pattern is visible on this deluxe terrycloth like fabric. Oxford Cloth goes back to the basics as the perfect base cloth. This fanciful plain fabric has a crisp, clean look with a soft hand, making it fitting for slipcovers or piping on upholstery.

All-weather and bleach cleanable drapery sheers are highly sought after. Lindy, a simple open pinstripe sheer, and Zephyr, a dynamic diagonal weave, are two subtle patterns that can be used indoors or outside. They are lightfast, durable, easy-to-clean, and will fi lter sunlight beautifully.
