Objective:
This workshop aims to help fashion design participants balance specialized technical skills with cross-disciplinary creativity. It fosters the ability to experiment, merge different approaches, and adapt to an evolving industry.

Methodology:
Participants engage with innovative materials and hybrid processes to create flexible, transformable elements. These elements are explored and refined through live fittings, deepening their understanding of form, movement, and fit. The workshop is designed for those with intermediate knowledge of materials and construction, guiding them from technical expertise toward broader creative strategies.

Key Results:
Participants develop adaptable design solutions that can be reinterpreted and reconfigured.
They gain experience integrating technical proficiency with creative experimentation.
The workshop promotes lateral thinking, collaboration, and an expanded approach to garment-making.

Impact:
By bridging technical skills with cross-disciplinary exploration, the workshop prepares participants for a fashion industry that values innovation and adaptability. It equips them with the tools to integrate experimentation into their design process, fostering a mindset where creativity and technical knowledge reinforce each other.
