In this brief interview segment, two speakers walk through the technical workflow used by a Portuguese luxury denim brand to create highly detailed, experimental garments. They describe a two‑step process where artwork is first laser‑cut and embroidered onto a denim panel, then the same panel is laser‑cut and embroidered again onto the final jeans. The discussion highlights the intricate patchwork, the use of large‑square artwork, multiple wash variations, and a roughly two‑month development cycle dedicated to these baggy, unisex, experimental designs.

Look at how detailed some of the patchwork they're doing is here.
We have the artwork of this, so we have the front of the jeans cut. We have this artwork. It will go to the embroidery. We'll have to make it in two steps. First, applying these small ones, laser cut and embroidery on the top of a panel of denim. And then this panel of denim is also laser cut and embroidered on top of the jeans. During the development phase, we spend some weeks developing these. The artwork we produce is in just big squares. Different versions, different washes. It's like 2 months development time for just for this. This brand specifically, they do very baggy things, unisex things, very experimental.
