FABRIC SELECTION

Every Rêve piece begins with fabric. Materials are sourced first and tested carefully through touch, wear, movement, and repeated washing. This is the most important decision we make. Out of many options, only a few are ever selected. Softness, comfort, breathability, and responsible qualities guide every choice.

MATERIAL TRANSFORMATION

Many of our fabrics begin as wood pulp and are carefully transformed into soft fibres through a considered process. For materials such as TENCEL™, the pulp is refined and purified becoming a breathable, lightweight fibre. This transformation is designed to preserve softness while reducing environmental impact, resulting in a fabric that feels gentle on the skin.

TESTING & REFINEMENT

Once a fabric is chosen, it is tested extensively. We wash it repeatedly, wear it over time, and test how it reacts to movement. Embroidery is developed and refined to ensure it feels gentle on the skin. Every detail is reviewed carefully, not only for how it looks, but for how it feels when worn.

DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT

Design follows feel. Shapes, fits, and details are developed alongside an experienced team, adjusting proportions and finishes until each piece feels natural on the body. Nothing moves forward unless it feels right.

FACTORY SELECTION

Choosing the right factories is an intentional part of our process. Designs are sent to selected partners for testing to assess quality, craftsmanship, and consistency. In some cases, we work with more than one factory, for example one specialised in embroidery and another in garment production, allowing each step to be handled by those who do it best.

PRODUCTION

Once the final factories are selected, production begins. Patterns are cut, garments are sewn, and each piece is assembled with care. Being closely involved allows us to oversee every stage and ensure our standards are met throughout the process.

FINISHING

After production, pieces are carefully finished and reviewed. Details are adjusted and refined until the garment feels soft, balanced, and comfortable when worn. This step ensures the final piece reflects the quality and care behind its creation.

PACKAGING

The final step is packaging. Each piece is carefully folded and placed in sustainable packaging, chosen to protect the garment while reflecting our commitment to sustainability.

TENCEL™ is the founding material of Rêve and sits at the core of our collections. Made from wood pulp sourced from responsibly managed forests, it is chosen for its exceptional softness, breathability, and gentle feel on the skin.

Our TENCEL™ fabrics are sourced and developed in Italy and Austria. We work exclusively with European suppliers to ensure high quality standards, traceability, and responsible production practices.

The creation of TENCEL™ uses a non toxic solvent process to transform wood pulp into fibre, resulting in a fabric with a notably lower environmental impact.

Mulberry Silk brings a more refined expression of softness to Rêve. Smooth, fluid, and naturally gentle on the skin, it is chosen for its quiet elegance and the lightness it brings to each piece.

Our silk is sourced from Italy through carefully selected suppliers, chosen for their quality, consistency, and traceability. Crafted from pure silk, each piece reflects our focus on materials that feel exceptional while meeting our standards for how they are made.

Silk is naturally temperature regulating, keeping you cool in summer and warm in winter, making it ideal to sleep in. As a natural fibre, it has self-cleaning properties. Simply airing it will keep it fresh between wears. Mulberry silk feels chic, effortless, and delicate when worn, a material chosen for moments that feel special while still remaining easy to live in.
