Mulhouse, a city near the Swiss border, is the center of French print culture. The Mulhouse Museum of Dyeing and Textile has a collection of about 6 million archives of printed fabrics from France and abroad, and is known as a museum that European luxury brands also use as design sources.
One of the biggest features of the archives of the Mulhouse Museum of Dyeing and Textile is that the patterns can be freely arranged. What's also great is that the arranged prints are re-acquired in the museum and later become part of the new archives. Historically valuable designs are revived in the present day and returned to the museum. This is the identity of the museum.
Since 2013, Toyoshima & Co., Ltd. has signed a sublicense agreement with Nishikawa Sangyo Co., Ltd., a major bedding company that is the master licensee of the Mulhouse Museum of Dyeing and Textile in France. It is the only company in the Japan that utilizes the archives to develop and start OEM production of apparel, stoles, umbrellas, handkerchiefs, bags, and bags.
