Press release for surfing and sports style fashions
The context here reads:
"La donna si veste di nuove forme più femminili, asimmetriche e inaspettate, di fit loose e di tessuti naturali dalla mano molto fresca, di bordi tagliati a vivo e stampe degradè."
I don't know whether this means the fabrics are handmade, or whether it is describing a fresh and modern touch to the styling.

: the risk is that in putting "very" and "cool" together, cool can be read as meaning "in fashion" rather than describing the physical sensation of the fabric
