Kombinationen af Marbles stil, kvalitet, kvinder godt. Kollektionen indeholder både klassisk strik og mere trendorienterede styles, og Marble er fleksible, så butikkerne kan få leveringer, der matcher butikkens behov. Jeg har solgt supergodt ind af Marbles strik til efteråret 2016, og jeg fornemmer kla rt, at Marble rammer et plet på det skandinaviske marked lige nu. På CIFF Showrooms præsenterer jeg Marbles nye kollektion sammen med nyhederne fra Anna Montana og Lebek. The combination of Marble’s style, quality, fit and price level suit the Nordic women well. The collection includes both classic knitwear and more trend-oriented styles, and Marble is flexible to match deliveries that suits the individual fashion shop. I've sold the knitwear super well for autumn 2016 and I clearly sense that Marble matches the Scandinavian market perfect right now. At CIFF Showrooms I present the new Marble collection for Spring/Summer 2017 along with the news from Anna Montana and Lebek.
