Textillis_18Leading Australian travel retailer awpl has opened a premium natural fibre concept store at Sydney Airport Terminal 2.

Textilis presents a selection of garments that celebrates the provenance of natural fabrics.

In this way, customers are invited to explore the ancient connections between natural fibres and human evolution that inspires the purchases they make.

The store itself is created using locally sourced natural fibres and woods that enhance the ‘sense of place’ theme present at the airport.
