Epson Renews Its Partnership with FASHION FRONTIER PROGRAM 2026
29 May 2026
Epson has announced the continuation of its partnership with the Fashion Frontier Program 2026 (“FFP”). The program seeks to discover and support next-generation fashion designers and is organised by Yuima Nakazato Laboratory.
Under its long-term corporate vision “ENGINEERED FUTURE 2035,” Epson says it aims to drive technological advances, engineer the optimal future and deliver value to society. Through this partnership, the company says it will offer its technologies and expertise to the next generation of creators, supporting their creativity and addressing their challenges in manufacturing and design, and contributing to the realisation of this vision.
Since 2021, Epson has continuously provided technical support for the creation of collections presented at Paris Haute Couture Week by YUIMA NAKAZATO, the fashion brand led by Yuima Nakazato. Through this co-creation, it has advanced its inkjet technology, leveraged digital textile printing to expand freedom of expression, reduced environmental impact, and explored new possibilities sustainably.
As part of the FFP, Epson plans to provide lectures and organise tours of its Solution Centres, offering participants opportunities to deepen their understanding of its printing technology and gain hands-on experience.
In addition, Epson will support the production of participants’ works by drawing on the technologies and expertise it has developed through its co-creation activities and business operations.
The FFP program comprises three elements: awards, education, and incubation. Finalists have the opportunity to learn from experts and mentors across diverse fields and receive technical support and opportunities to present their work.
