Denim Fashion Seminar SS28 / DENIM MASTERWORKS: CREATIVE ADAPTABILITY
To navigate the ongoing transformation of our volatile and contradictory environments and societies, we need to reclaim our capacity to act and choose, but also the amazing pleasure of creating.
In this Summer 28 denim analysis, new reference points emerge as islands of stability that will help us navigate uncertainty and rethink creativity.
Heritage, workwear, local know-how and familiar archetypes are reactivated through contemporary processes, urban attitudes and new creative tools. Instability becomes a space for experimentation, where spontaneity, imperfection and unexpected combinations redefine value.
Denim becomes freer, more adaptable, more expressive. Less controlled, more intuitive. Less fixed, more open.
During this immersive seminar, our expert team decodes the key social and creative shifts shaping the season, connecting them with trend references and concrete innovations from Denim PV exhibitors. Fabrics, garments, washes, constructions and finishes reveal how craft, technology and experimentation are driving new directions for denim.
A 45-minutes masterclass on Denim Trends.

“The Body as a Design Vertigo”: Fashion at the Intersection of Philosophy, Architecture, Art and Design
The expression “the body as a design vertigo” evokes a profound and fascinating concept that brings together philosophy, architecture, art and design, and approaches the world of fashion from a different perspective.
At its centre is the human being, and the idea of the human body no longer as a mere standard measure or passive spectator, but as a dynamic, destabilising force that generates space.
Rather than designing rigid spaces to which the body must simply “adapt”, design becomes a form of “vertigo”: an exploration of the limits of movement, the senses and emotional responses.
This is where it begins.
