Description
Signal Snowboards drops into high fashion this month on Every Third Thursday. Series host Dave Lee and the Signal factory crew team up with FIDM and student designer Kelly Knaggs to create an avant-garde snowboard to complement her outerwear line. Utilizing fabric and sublimated metal imagery as visual elements and an unusual asymmetrical shape featuring a tail whip, the Signal factory crew, in true Project Runway fashion, complete the final piece just in time for the runway premier at FIDM. The flashy board passes the fashionable test—bit is it functional? Signal and FIDM partnered together for FIDM's DEBUT Runway Show to produce 11 custom snowboards designed by FIDM Graphic Design Students that were unveiled with FIDM Advanced Fashion Design Student Kelly Knaggs' winter sports apparel collection. On Signal's ETT webisode, you'll get the story behind the twelfth board seen on the runway at DEBUT, a custom designed board conceived and developed by Signal with a unique curvilinear tail and fabrics used in Knaggs’ collection.
