Dhaka, Bangladesh (BBN)- The 7th edition of Denimsandjeans Bangladesh will begin in the capital Dhaka on March 01 aiming to attract global buyers as the country has a capacity to provide quality products with a lower cost. The expo with a new theme –‘Denim Mashup’– will focus the latest trend in denim where embellishments, embroideries, sequins, patches, paint etc are used in different combinations to produce visually exaggerated hi fashion denims.
This trend is being taken up by global brands like Gucci, D&G, Tommy Hilfiger, Wrangler and many others. The whole show will be decked up in the ‘Denim Mashup theme.’
The ‘Denim Mashup’ has been a subtle trend over many years now and we now see its strong resurgence across multiple brands worldwide from luxury brands like Gucci to fast fashion retailers like Zara and H&M, all are taking up this as the next cool denim trend in 2017.
"Bangladesh is the fastest growing denim destinations globally for sourcing fabrics and has been growing exponentially and quickly rising up the value chain," Mr. Sandeep Agarwal, Founder of Denimsandjeans.com, said in a statement.
The Denimsandjeans team will recreate this theme using products from some of the key global denim suppliers and bring them under this theme together at Radisson Blu Water Garden Hotel on March 1-2.
Informative Seminar by Dr. Dilek Erik from Turkey on the topic – “Studying Lifestyles and Creating Story to Sell Denims” and Presentation by Mr. Jordi Junai on the topic - “Jeans supply opportunity in US market” and couple of workshops on global denim innovations add further zing to the show.
Besides, the Denimsandjeans brings out a ‘Denim Quiz’ for the students of fashion universities of Bangladesh in its Seventh Edition on March 01.
This is a special event for the students of the participating universities – BUET, SMUCT and NIFT –as they will be able to compete with each other on their denim knowledge and their competition will be transmitted globally through Denimsandjeans Facebook Livecast.
