Awarded 1st Place in the 2023 AATCC Merchandising Competition
AATCC’s 2023 C2C Student Merchandising Competition challenged students to choose a sustainability feature (preferred fibers, manufacturing, end-of-life/reusability) to focus their apparel line on. Then, select 2-3 AATCC test methods (such as coloration, laundering, odor, and microfibers) that will help prove their line is sustainable.
My team focused on end-of-life and reusability. We developed a compostable clothing line marketed towards eco-conscious women who enjoy outdoor activities like gardening.
