They included designs from Jasmine Boussena, Luigi Miollo and Emma Tranchini, all from the third year of the fashion designing course at NABA.All the three students were invited to the ColorJet booth at ITMA 2015 in hall 18, stall H-102 and their designs were printed on the METRO, a truly advanced industrial grade digital textile printer, which fantastically incorporates the latest technology and efficient engineering to meet the ever growing demands of textile printing.

Compatible to work with all types of inks like reactive acid disperse and pigment, this printer weaves magic on a variety of fabrics. Be it any kind of fabric, ranging from 0.1mm to 30mm including cotton, polyester, silk, viscose, wool, nylon, acetate and various blended fabrics can be printed on the METRO.In a first experience of its kind for these budding fashion designers, the students were thrilled to see their designs being printed on the METRO digital textile printer. 

All the three students were presented the fabrics printed from their designs and a cash prize of €200 each. One of the prize winners, Jasmine said she loves designing which is why she took part in the competition and is very much excited that her design won her a prize. 

She was also full of praise for the design that was printed on a METRO printer as the colours were as vivid and sharp as in the design that was submitted by her.
