Introducing: 4-Way Stretch

The change in seasons brings about the perfect opportunity for fresh materials and new perspectives.

At XCVI, we’re introducing cutting-edge fabrics like our all-new 4-Way Stretch!

4-Way Stretch operates just as its namesake suggests, stretching left and right as well as up and down! A heavier, mid-weight knit allows for multi-directional stretch. Rayon, acrylic, and spandex are all blended in for a unique “fuzzy” handfeel from a slightly brushed face. The acrylic fibers create a “heathered” or muted stipple effect throughout the fabric, adding texture and grain to a seamlessly stretchy material.

You’ll find 4-Way Stretch in a few of our Fall 2022 New Arrivals! Stretching up, down, back, and forth, the Upton Tee exemplifies the sturdy knit of our newest fabric. Upton’s dressier feel can be credited to the supple and soft yet heavier weave of our 4-Way Stretch, along with curved princess seaming along the torso for an elegant, streamlined fit. Slightly boxy with a staggered asymmetrical high-low hem, Upton features a crew neck cut and slightly elongated t-shirt sleeves for a sophisticated, elevated go-to tee with sporty influence. Wear Upton to work with some slacks or out with friends in some jeans and sneakers. Available in neutral, autumnal hues including green-tan Rural Pigment, classic midnight Black, and dark eggplant Belge, the Upton Tee is easy to move in and easy to wear, showing off our newest colorways and fabric options with grace and ease!

The Bromley Legging makes the perfect counterpart to our Upton Tee, utilizing the all-new 4-Way Stretch to its utmost abilities! Stretch in just about any direction without sacrificing sturdiness or support. Your leggings should move with you, and the flexible Bromley will do just that! A high-waist cut and angular yoke tailor these leggings to fit your curves ever-so perfectly, while low-set side pockets and curved seams make Bromley flattering as can be. Wear this pair in classic Black or opt for rust-red Dark Nubuck or olive tie-dye Stone Wash Courtyard for a slightly more rock-and-roll feel. In any of these nature-inspired hues, the Bromley Legging proves that leggings are, in fact, pants! Pair Bromley with a classic tee or sweatshirt for any occasion, or throw them on for a workout as the seasons change and Autumn sets in.

With strong knit material and body-contouring sturdiness, XCVI’s all-new 4-Way Stretch is here to stay! Our Upton Tee and Bromley Legging show off all the flexible capability of 4-way stretch technology, making for some elevated basic go-to pieces that stand the tests of time, weather, and situation! The sporty yet sophisticated feel of the heavier-weight knit 4-Way Stretch lends itself well to a fabric that transcends occasion and can go from day to night without a hitch! As the seasons change and we look for clothes that make the weather transition easier, 4-Way Stretch is here to help, and we can’t wait to see more of it as Autumn rolls around and the leaves change color.
