Join us as we celebrate and highlight St. Louis’ Talented makers.  This annual event will include designs by local talent, Lukas Roe, Shanna Britta & Paulie Gibson.  In addition to Paulie’s men’s collection, he has collaborated with The Collective Thread’s makers to create a new collection, Babs.  The process of sketching, draping, pattern making and sewing these designs will be a tool of training for TCT  staff, elevating their skill level and earning potential.    Last year’s event drew praise from the Fashion Community and brought in new support such as St. Louis Magazine, The St. Louis Business Journal, Tacony Corp., and The St. Louis Fashion Fund.  Due to the success of last year, The Collective Thread is planning to enhance this years event with the help and support of The St. Louis Fashion Funds 10 for 10th campaign.  Help us continue to revitalize the Fashion Ecosystem in St. Louis and benefit the talented makers in St. Louis by offering them advanced career opportunities through TCT on-the job training. 

Your Support provides opportunity to local makers to increase their sewing skills, move into advanced manufactuirng opportunities with state of the art equipment, and learn design concepts needed in product development.
