Workshop "Reflective Materials"

Vest using reflective materials from Regine IQ trim. Design: Jutta Erb, Modefachschule Sigmaringen. Model: Jan-Paul

One of my recent workshops at Modefachschule Sigmaringen was dedicated to REFLECTIVE MATERIALS. Gunold and Regine IQ trim provided great threads, ribbons, pipings, transfer pints, fabrics and more and the students were really impressed by the effects these materials offer.

The aim of the workshop was to try out the different materials, to mix textile techniques and to use the reflexion in an unusual context. Here are some impressions for you:
