Kingpins Strikes Amsterdam
Denimheads gathered en masse in Amsterdam last week for Kingpins. Spread over two days, the show was home to a wide-ranging collection of trends and talks surrounding the world’s most popular fabric (not to mention one storied pop-up with Kings of Indigo).
A lower footprint planted itself as a front-and-center main player at the event, with brands and mills sharing what they’re doing to produce more responsibly for Spring/Summer 2021—and beyond. Whether it’s new wash technologies, finishing techniques or fiber innovation, companies exchanged new ideas and fabrics that are greening denim, from fiber to finished product.
