Vlisco Colours

Where would a design be without striking colours? Colouring is an aspect of our craft that is in constant development on a conceptual, technical and artistic level. This is a key element of our fabrics as most of the colours used, are created individually and not found anywhere else. Explore our colourful secrets here.
