Rachel talked to us on a Teams call about her work to date and how leading the BFTT’s Blackhorse Lane Atelier R&D project, to develop sustainable denim-washing and finishing processes through implementation of the first stateof-the-art laboratory in London, is a dream come true.
Having worked with denim washers and finishers all over the world, Rachel gave an overview of existing techniques and the alternatives that they are looking at for the BLA project. To end her soiree, Rachel talked about the need to start ‘denim dialogues’ with British based companies and designers and to work collaboratively via BLA.
