Initially, the project was very different from the others. We had to try to print completely new materials and designs. We have conducted an intensive.Customizing styles and patterns is based on the individuality of the designer. Accessories such as handbags, shoes, etc. Designed for specific themes related to clothing. Men's models included in the forms of abstract art, when printed in the first round were the result of verification, such as fabrics, leather and plastic. Clothes futuristic design, content, allowing students to explore and create.

Our goal was to achieve technical excellence in the construction of the garment that blends a modern design and trends, experimenting with new forms and modes of organization to create optical illusions with materials such as canvas and leather

It 'been a real learning experience! The students went through the stages of the investigations that followed the market trends and forecasts for the future of fashion courses.

Similarly, shoes, handbags and accessories, and how men have been specially designed keeping in mind the specific styles to optimize print designs and printing techniques

It 'was a great opportunity for us, is one of the first note of the newest environmentally friendly technology and to work with new materials. Large format printers for the future of fashion.
