Last week, Moisés López, student of 4th of Fashion Design of the Escola d’Art i Superior of Disseny d’Alcoi (EASDAlcoi) explained his experience as manager of workshops in Anantapur (India), in collaboration with the Vicente Ferrer Foundation .
For two and a half months, he was organizing the different tasks of the workshop so that women who work there could be more efficient when making clothes.
Moisés explained the importance of this experience, both professionally and personally. Moreover, he confesses that now he relativizes more everything around him.
In addition, his speech was aimed to the new comers students of EASDAlcoi in order to show the way working of the Vicente Ferrer Foundation; with which our school has established a collaboration channel from different specialties, such as Product and Fashion. Now it will also be expanded to the Graphic department.
A good example of this collaboration is the collection of accessories, like bags, earrings, necklaces or handkerchiefs, that are being designed by students of 3rd Fashion Design for the women of Anantapur workshop, which can be made by themselves and thus self-finance. In addition, the design of a fashion collection will be planned for the next semester, which will also be made by them.
In the case of the Product Department, within this cooperation with the Vicente Ferrer Foundation; sustainable materials, objects and products are being developed, which involve a minimum cost but a greater benefit.
