SCABAL has sponsored the industry project for the 2nd year bespoke tailoring students at London college of Fashion

In 1971, SCABAL commissioned Salvador Dali to create a set of paintings inspired by his vision of menswear in the year 2000. The result was 12 unique images of future fashion that are some of the artist’s most interesting creations. These paintings and the thought behind them inspired the theme of the industry project – to create a future facing garment that shows how lifestyle, social change and culture could impact the aesthetics of dress between 2018 and 2038.

Students were tasked to document their process through research, design and development and the finished projects were judged by the team at SCABAL who accessed all elements presented, including the final garments.

The winner of the project was Seungil Kim, who imagined a future where weather patterns become more erratic and the need for instant protection from the elements was necessary. He presented a reversible jacket with weather proof reclaimed materials on one side whilst the reverse was a more traditional tailored wool jacket.
