The Denim Re-Union, organised by Denimsandjeans, heard from a range of speakers over the two-day event (March 30 and 31), helping to “connect each other, fill knowledge gaps and upgrade offerings”.

Talks included a trends forecast by Dilek Erik, a closer look at hemp from the Orta team and “humanity-centred design” by Naveena Denim Mills.

Companies that took part included Iskur Denim, Sharabati Denim, Zaitex, Officina+39 and Jeanologia; consultants included Michelle Branch, Stefano Aldighieri, Piero Turk and Rui Lima.

Organiser Sandeep Agarwal, who launched a sourcing app called DE Brands Platform, said the event had been designed to be very interactive, “with the hope to do away with some of the boredom!”
