Redesigning Levi’s 511 Jeans | FASHION AS DESIGN



A single pair of jeans requires nearly 1,000 gallons of water in the production process. See how the world’s largest denim company is re-imagining denim thanks to new system-based design principles that help create a more sustainable and durable denim jean in this master class by Paul Dillinger, VP, Global Head of Product Innovation, Levi Strauss & Co.

A pair of Levi’s 501s was the first garment on the #ItemsMoMA checklist, and is explored in more detail in our new course, FASHION AS DESIGN that explores a selection of garments from around the world—ranging from Kente cloth to jeans to 3D-printed dresses. Each week will begin with a conversation between the course instructors—Paola Antonelli, Michelle Fisher, and Stephanie Kramer—that introduces the themes, items, and questions that we will explore.
