After months of intensive work, on the 9th of July ISKO and partners announced the winners of the two ISKO I-SKOOL contests – one for designers and one for marketing professionals – which the international denim leader conceived to foster young talents’ creativity by offering true expertise and interesting workshops to teach them valuable insights about the most revolutionary fabric now in use.

The winning garments were showcased on mannequins creating a collection of exclusive fashion denim outfits, together with the MOLESKINE notebooks they used during these past months to shape their ideas and inspirations through sketches and drafts.
