Future Fit Forum and Hyosung Creora Want Your Vote in Amsterdam

Future Fit Forum, the Kingpins initiative exploring the future of denim design and fit, is inviting the Kingpins audience to participate in the effort by casting their vote for one of five fabrics used in the project.

The Future Fit Forum is a collaborative project with partner Creora in which a panel of designers explore the future of fit using vintage Levi’s 501 that were rescued from a landfill, as well as new denim fabric made with Creora, Hyosung’s bio-based stretch fiber.

The initiative includes a panel discussion with the designers, moderated by Michelle Branch, Founder and Creative Director of Markt & Twigs, Inc., the global creative firm specializing in denim messaging. Branch has led the Future Fit initiative since its launch at Kingpins New York in January. Each season, Branch selects a new slate of designers to participate in the initiative.

Future Fit Forum designs will be on display in The Boxes at Kingpins Amsterdam. This season, Hyosung selected Creora denim fabrics from five of its supplier mills. All five fabrics will be on display alongside the garments in The Boxes — although the mill names will not be visible. For the first time ever, Hyosung is inviting Kingpins attendees to vote for their favorite fabrics.

The Future Fit Forum panel will be held at 1:30 p.m. on Oct. 23.
