Vicuña...any idea?

Hello

I was wondering if there are any fabric manufacturers who make wool and vicuña mix? I know that there are some lovely supers out there with cashmere but I have yet to see any with vicuña...

Cheers

I believe that there are some. Certainly, there are vicuna/silk and vicuna/cashmere blends.

I am not sure why you would want it, though. If I were to buy anything vicuna, it would be a scarf so that I could feel it next to my skin, and not worry about how it wore.

Can't I make a suit out of it?

Good old Loro Piana have vicuna and silk mix just a small amount of silk to help keep shape; however, very small selection. I've always thought that inky blue vicuna would be the ultimate DJ/Tuxedo.
