In a smart response to the pandemic, Supima staged its annual celebration Design Lab entirely online as the organization looked forward to its next participation at this month’s Hyères Festival.

For 2020, Supima Design Lab featured a wide selection of ideas and creations, showcased in a 20-minute video on Supima.com.

The Supima Design Competition enabled all six finalists to show their ideas before a virtual French garden, La Notre, with a white tech topiary. Led by this year’s winner Amanda Forastieri, all finalists attend fashion and design schools in the United States, from Parsons School of Design to FIT.

Next ten young designers from Hyères showed ideas, ranging from Katarzyna Cichy’s enveloping all-white jumpsuit to Andrea Grossi’s remarkable biker jacket and pants printed in the shape of a human torso and finished with the designer’s name in gothic script alongside intense illustrations.

Finally, the event featured a curated pick of designers: Lutz Huelle, Thierry Colson, Dice Kayek, Jean Paul Knott and On Aura Tout Vu.
