It was two nights before New York Fashion Week officially started and I was feeling pumped. I had been invited to the Epson Digital Couture in past seasons but was never able to make it due to a scheduling conflict. This season I wanted to make it my business to attend; and I did! The Epson Digital Couture showcase was comprised of eleven selected designers from the North and South America whom created their capsule collections using Epson’s state-of-the-art direct-to-garment and digital dye-sublimation printing. This season’s theme for the collections was designed around “Harmony and Peace Through Fashion.”
“Digital dye-sublimation and direct-to-garment technologies, a relatively new trend in the textile industry, allow designers to alter textile designs, make color selections with the click of a mouse, and hone in on the fine details of their creations. Epson‘s SureColor® F-Series printers give fashion and textile designers alike an accessible means to bring their ideas and inspiration to life, with the signature quality that distinguishes the Epson brand. The SureColor F-Series printers are high-speed, low-cost solutions that produce sharp, vivid images and offer an abundance of rich colors, intense blacks, and smooth gradations onto fabric.”
