To increase awareness, creative use, and the promotion of cotton product lines LSU’s Department of Textiles, Apparel Design, and Merchandising students participated in the Creative Cotton Design Competition. Senior design students used skills gained in the curriculum to design, develop, and execute their apparel collections. Three winners in each of three categories (cotton print, garment design, and illustration collection categories) were awarded monetary prizes totaling $1,500 based on their innovative approaches towards promoting cotton.
