Here’s What to Expect from Triarchy Denim at New York Denim Days
How Much Water Are You Wearing?
That’s the question that Triarchy Denim asks fashionistas. It takes around 2,900 gallons of water to make a pair of traditional cotton jeans, and Triarchy is setting out to save water and resources by reconstructing, reimagining and reinventing denim from recycled materials and high-end trims.
Adam Taubenfligel, the creative director for Triarchy, will be attending New York Denim Days for the first time this summer, and he’s looking forward to bringing Triarchy’s one-of-a-kind styles to the festival. Here’s what Adam is most excited about at NYDD, just around the corner on June 8th and 9th.
Carved in Blue: Tell us how Triarchy approaches denim differently.
Adam: In any and every way possible, we manufacture our Atelier line entirely out of vintage denim, which we deconstruct and then reconstruct into full collections. Fit always remains impeccable, color variation changes based on the original patina of the denim we use.
Our new production compiles multiple different sustainability efforts. We first and foremost use TENCEL™ Lyocell, as well as recycled fibre denims and recycled poly for stretch, we then wash sustainably with ozone and e flow and laser finishing, topped off with recycled metal buttons and recycled plastic labels. We do everything we can to make the best pair of jeans out there.
Carved in Blue: What is your theme/story at NY Denim Days?
Adam: Our theme and story for denim days is simply being true to Triarchy, our story, our sustainability efforts through our use of TENCEL™ Lyocell and Modal fibers and our ask which is “How much water are you wearing?”
Carved in Blue: Which TENCEL™ Denim styles are you selling?
Adam: Our womens Skinny and High Waist Skinny jean in multiple wash variations.
Carved in Blue: What do you like most about NY Denim Days?
Adam: I’ve actually never been but being in the same space as so many denim lovers sounds like a great way to spend a weekend.
Carved in Blue: If you were telling your best friend to come to NY Denim Days, what would you say about it?
Adam: Every type of denim under one roof, what could be better?
