On 5 May 2026, EU Cotton organized a seminar and workshop with students from the Copenhagen Academy of Fashion Design. The activity took place at the premises of the academy and focused on introducing European cotton to the next generation of fashion designers.
Prior to the workshop, European cotton fabrics were sent to the students, allowing them to work directly with the material and explore its creative possibilities. Using these fabrics, the students designed outfits which were presented during the workshop, transforming the activity into a practical and creative experience.
The seminar offered the opportunity to present the EU Cotton program, its objectives and the value of European cotton as a material with quality, origin and strong potential for fashion design. At the same time, the workshop encouraged students to engage with the material through practice, experimentation and creativity.
This educational activity was particularly important for the program, as it connected European cotton with young designers and future fashion professionals. It highlighted the importance of responsible material choices and demonstrated how European cotton can inspire contemporary design while supporting a stronger connection between production, education and creativity.
