Launch exhibition

Miranda Konstantinidou, founder and owner of the internationally renowned jewelry company KONPLOTT, is also strongly connected to the Design Campus as a former fashion design student. As patron of the Alumnifest 2020, she awarded a new sponsorship prize for young fashion designers from Trier, the "Miranda Konstantinidou - Junior Fashion Innovation Prize". From 26 exhibited graduation projects, she selected the three fashion collections she considered most innovative. The prizes went to Anette Görlich, Lea Kasper and Nadja Führinger.

Many of the exhibited works dealt with the topics of the hour: Sustainability and digitalization. "The fashion industry is undergoing a major upheaval right now," said Prof. Dirk Wolfes from the Fashion Design Department. "It's a highly complex profession that requires a lot of knowledge - from cutting to material science, communication and market understanding to production processes."
