 International Week 2022  

May 2nd in Room 172 10:00–16:00

May 3rd in Room 172 10:00–16:00

 

What is the contemporary DIY scene like? What could the fashion industry learn from makers and how would it change the way we think of fashion, if more people would engage in the process of making their own clothes? What are the needs for fashion design within the DIY community? TAUKO Magazine is a new international sewing and lifestyle magazine with sewing patterns and step by step guidelines by independent fashion and pattern designers. Inspired by the international DIY community and independent pattern designers, the workshop will give new perspectives for fashion. The summer issue of TAUKO Magazine will be used as the inspiration and practical tool during the workshop. Students will create their own projects based on the patterns on the magazine by hacking and rethinking the designs.
