VLISCO UNVEILS “TRESOR BRILLIANT” COLLECTION

Sizzling brilliance With its dreamy designs featuring rich, fiery reds punctuated with intense shades of blue and green, the Trésor Brillant concept is truly diverse, ranging from the highly detailed to the highly abstract. The repetitive figurative designs appear to be infinite, while twinkling designs create a glossy look and add the perfect touch of glamour. The fabrics let every woman shine in all her allure.
