    Alabama factory provides great learning experience for CTD students

    5/8/2018

     
    The CHES student group SMDA (Student Merchandising and Design Association) along with the CTD department took apparel students on a field trip to Alabama Chanin in Florence, Alabama. Students were given a tour of Natalie "Alabama" Chanin's studio and factory, participated in a hands-on workshop, and enjoyed lunch at the on-site cafe. Students witnessed garments being produced in the factory and learned about sustainability practices in the apparel industry.

    Chanin describes her company this way, "Alabama Chanin is a lifestyle company producing well-designed and thoughtfully made goods for the person and the home. We use 100% organic cotton fabric in our designs, sourced sustainably from seed to fabric—along with re-purposed and reclaimed materials."
