This fall, ID Collection owners Joe DeMourelle, Bonnie Martin and Jim Williamson celebrate 15 years in the showroom biz with a slew of new names, including two fabric lines from Milan: Alcantara, which is known for its luxurious vegan suede that’s been laser-cut, topstitched, braided and embedded with crystals; and Kohro, whose rare double-width cashmeres and other sumptuous fabrics can be endlessly customized.
