The Different Ways for Fabric Design
Artistic
or
Commercial
WHAT MAKES THESE PRINTS UNIQUE











They are not factory production designs
They are Artistically Designed and Hand Printed in an Artist's Studio in Limited production as Haute Couture
Fashion.
Before 1962 fabric designs for fashion were small prints, repeated several times within a few inches.
 ●
Factory produced  designs were limited in size to conform to the production producing printing method.
The largest pattern could not be more than 12 inches square and the production printers could only print  to 36 or 42 inches square in repeating patterns.  Designs were produced by unknown designers trained in design school to conform to factoty production not getting any credit for their design and paid not more the their hourly wage.
Tzaims Luksus
never studied fabric design nor was led into conformity nor ever worked for a commercial fabric company.
 He is an Art Academy fine art  artist and not a fabric designer but he turned to designing fabrics seeing a need in high fashion for artisticallh printed fabrics which he could create himself.
He never competed with any other design group or individua but continually created fabrics that were too large for printing companies to compete with him.  No one could ever compete with Luksus.  
Even as a Haute Couturier in Paris he was ahead of everyone.  He never competed but created his own style, whereas Yves Saint Laurent copied styles from classic designs, but unlike YSL, Luksus created his own fabrics and couture clothes from his own vision whereas Yves bought from commercial fabric companies that produced thousands of yards of every fabric Yves used.
THERE IS THE GREAT DIFFERENCE
These Luksus prints were created by screens 60 jnches wide by 72 inches long taking four printers to print one panel not repeated but as one full design 
One panel could create a full length gown
Luksus created a new trend breaking away from commercial conformity to individually created art pieces ax were his paintings that they came from.
Eventually Japan and Finland caught on to his method and began creating over sized hand prints in competition with him.
