Denim was, is and always will be a fascinating and versatile material. No question that this workshop at Modefachschule Sigmaringen was fully booked very quickly. In addition to the very well equipped fashion school, denim fabrics sponsored by EVLOX, threads from GUNOLD, reflective materials from REGINE IQ TRIM and the latest Coverlock machine Admire Air 7000 from PFAFF were provided. The aim was to use the fabrics in combination with embroidery design and effect seams and to discover possibilities Part of the samples are now being industrially washed and treated by another experienced industry expert, DENIM AUTHORITY. (website currently under construction). The students created their samples double or triple to see the differences after washing, bleaching, dyeing etc… Stay tuned for more impressions, but can’t wait to share some first results here:
