Connecting talent to the sustainable denim industry is one of our goals. Our international fashion design competition for students and young professionals aims to bring this talent to the forefront. The future is in the hands of emerging new minds, and we want to nurture their ideas to feed the fashion industry with creativity and passion.
In July 2020 we celebrated our 7th annual ISKO I-SKOOL™ Digital Award Ceremony.
The culmination of a long and exciting denim journey for our finalists under the theme of "North, East, South and West: connected by one planet”.
Championing talent, innovation, and responsible vision, watch the ceremony as our finalists share their unique creations.
No matter where we were born or where we live, one thing remains the same: we all share this planet. Being a designer today is not only about creating beautiful things, it also means being aware of the process as a whole, from sketching to manufacturing to marketing, taking responsibility of the product life cycle. We ask that you explore the world that surrounds you both locally and globally.
This means drawing on your own origins and background and combining it with influences and ideas inspired by other cultures, style and ways of life to create your responsible denim.
In the firm belief that true inspiration always comes from the crossover of ideas and talent, all the brands involved in ISKO I-SKOOL™ project are eager to make their knowledge available to younger generations.
ISKO’s research laboratory combines the company’s expertise in denim and woven technologies with groundbreaking innovation to create wearable health and wellness products.
