Dash & Miller works closely with CMF teams in product development, automotive design, and sports footwear on their materials concept development and prototyping to deliver exciting experimental, technical, and novel outcomes.

We combine our eye for colour and trend with an extensive digital skillset to revamp existing design collections and to deliver new, targeted concepts.

Our designers adopt both a reactive and prognostic approach to trend. We regularly collaborate with leading global trend agencies on their seasonal forecasts and deliver frequent focused trend packages, which can include trend direction, analysis, and trend-led fabric designs.

We believe that our positioning within the product development process bestows on us a responsibility to design sustainable outcomes. Our R&D in circular sourcing and localised, traceable textile solutions feeds our curiosity about how to deliver a more sustainable future for the industry. Our knowledge and networks support us in delivering research and consultation for sustainable textile solutions.

Dash & Miller engages with public bodies, art curators, artists, and producers to deliver usable and uniquely creative solutions for pieces of art, public spaces, and varied projects. We work to channel and distil artistic vision, exploring the practical and technical elements of a brief, offering our expertise and knowledge to facilitate successful and stunning outcomes.

Working on handlooms and drawing from an extensive catalogue of raw materials, our designers utilise their creative expertise and unique take on brand identity to develop innovative and showstopping fabrics. Our close links with mills in the UK and Italy allow us to see a fabric development through to production when required.
