OBR Merino’s New Website Goes Live

Announcement posted by OBR Merino - Cartoon Ltd 23 Mar 2015

OBR NZ Merino’s owner and Director of Design, Jan Turley, is very excited to announce that the company has a brand new logo and a brand new website to go with it. This is great news for all her loyal clients as it gives them even easier access to the stunning range of luxury NZ Merino garments to be found on the website at http://www.obrmerino.com . OBR NZ Merino are the number one experts in New Zealand made luxury merino products and have been selling their garments throughout New Zealand and Australia for over 20 years, and now export all over the world.

Jan has been in the fashion business for many years and has used New Zealand Merino for most of that time, and the reason she is so passionate about it is for all the myriad qualities associated with it. As Jan puts it, “All Merino is not created equal and New Zealand made Merino wool is undoubtedly the best in the world.” Merino wool is ‘nature’s performance fibre’ and is a natural, renewable fibre that is warm without weight, odour resistant and durable. Merino fabric has excellent wrinkle recovery, resists soiling and is recyclable and bio degradable which, in these very environmentally aware times, is even more important.

Jan and OBR NZ Merino’s philosophy is that they take pride in offering and delivering to their customers the best quality garments they possibly can. Their fabulous and fashionable wool capes and wraps are particularly sought after by the modern woman as a ‘one size fits all’ fashion accessory and OBR NZ Merino has a stunning array of styles in every colour imaginable.

All these capes and wraps can be easily carried in a handbag, and when taken out, they drape beautifully, with no creases or crinkles. Bearing this in mind, the cape or wrap is fabulous as the ultimate cruise companion, providing a light layer for those chilly nights, giving warmth without weight. In fact, capes and wraps are ideal for travelling anywhere, being so easy to pack and so adaptable. Another marvellous idea for the multipurpose cape or wrap is for nursing mums, who can breastfeed her baby, looking glam while keeping baby warm!

And, as lawyer, Kathryn Beck says, “The quality of the fabric is sensational. It is so soft next to my skin. I can wear these garments with confidence I can have many meetings throughout the day and still look sharp before a drinks meeting with a client after work”.
