Introducing DSNFWD, a four-month residency program designed by The Assembly in collaboration with Ravensbourne University for 3D digital creators, fashion entrepreneurs and university students looking to create innovative digital fashion products and experiences in collaboration with international peers.
The goal of the program is to build the capacity and competitiveness of creators and entrepreneurs in fashion and digital services, showcase cross-cultural design and how African fashion creatives are embracing the versatility of digital design to increase efficiency and decrease waste.
A first of its kind, the digital fashion residency is calling fashion creatives running a commercially viable creative practice or brand, and digital creators who are skilled in the use of design software such as Clo3D, Rhino and Adobe Creative Suite.
