RadiciSpandex Corp., Gastonia, N.C.,
has invited junior fashion class students at Kent, Ohio-based Kent State University’s The Fashion

future challenges.
Fashion, fabric and media experts will judge the submissions at the school’s New York City
satellite location in April 2007.
“Through the years, ‘Stretch to the Future’ has demonstrated just how talented, passionate
and innovative young designers can be when they are confronted with new applications and technical
advancements,” said Rob Rebello, CEO, RadiciSpandex.
