A First-of-Its-Kind Co-Branded Fabric Collection with Valdese Weavers
A First-of-Its-Kind Co-Branded Fabric Collection with Valdese Weavers
International Design Source (IDS) is proud to unveil Autograph by IDS, a groundbreaking co-branded fabric collection in collaboration with renowned American textile mill Valdese Weavers. This first-of-its-kind partnership brings together the most popular and performance-driven upholstery fabrics used by leading U.S. furniture manufacturers—now available in a curated, trade-only offering exclusive to IDS clients.
As global sourcing grows more complex due to tariffs, economic shifts, and supply chain volatility, Autograph by IDS offers a reliable, elegant solution: one cohesive collection, woven in the USA, with vendor-specific ordering details and curated for the way designers work today.
“Autograph is more than a fabric collection—it’s a sourcing revolution,” says Emilio Sadez, Owner/CEO of IDS. “It simplifies the process, shortens the lead time, and gives our clients access to the fabrics they already love—now with clarity and ease.”
Why Autograph Matters
Until now, designers had to navigate multiple manufacturers, vendors, and sourcing channels to track down fabrics used on upholstered furniture lines. With Autograph by IDS, we’ve gathered those fabrics into one powerful tool—complete with SKU-level transparency and cross-vendor references, so designers can find, specify, and source faster and more confidently.
Key features include:
- First co-branded offering from Valdese Weavers to the trade
- 90-page interactive catalog organized by texture, pattern, and performance
- Vendor-specific SKUs for streamlined ordering
- Domestic-first sourcing to reduce delays and uncertainty
- Performance technologies like Ease Eco Performance®, InsideOut®, and Sustain™
Designed for the Way You Work
Whether you’re outfitting a showhouse or updating a client’s home, Autograph makes sourcing smarter.
It includes:
- Upholstery-ready durability (in select performance lines)
- Soap-and-water cleanability (in select performance lines)
- Outdoor fade- and mildew-resistance (InsideOut®)
- PFAS-free and GREENGUARD Gold Certified options (in select performance lines)
- Proudly woven in the USA
Explore the Collection
The entire Autograph collection is now available to explore online in a beautifully designed, interactive lookbook. It’s easy to search by performance type, texture, or vendor reference—making it an ideal tool for designers, sales teams, and sourcing specialists.
In addition to the 90-page interactive catalog, designers can explore the Autograph collection in person at our Naples Luxe and Sarasota Fabric showrooms, where sample and memo racks are available.
