Denimhead Dusty Thomas is a 23-year-old Maastricht-based menswear designer who originally comes from Landgraaf. Her MAFAD graduation collection 'Bluedenîmes' served as a therapy for her, it took away all her insecurities. She loves to create signatures pockets for all her designs.

For FASHIONCLASH Festival 2016, Dusty teams up again with props/accessories designer Minou Lejeune.
You can see their new collection Friday night, Show 1 at 19:30. You can get your tickets here.


Q&A with Dusty Thomas

When did you realise you wanted to be a fashion designer? 
I realized it as a child; I was always drawing clothes. I have been designing clothing since the second year of my study at the MAFAD, Maastricht Academy of Fine Arts and Design. So that’s 5 years in total now.

What are your main achievements in your career at this moment? 
My main achievement is to gain more experience and expand my portfolio. Also I want to make my menswear label Bluedenîmes more well-known. I hope one day I could make a living out of my label and/or I hope to have a nice job as a designer at a denim label in Amsterdam.
