Visitors to Kingpins’ Denim Days in New York will remember Studio 189’s bold prints and indigo-dyed textiles. The New York-based company, founded by fashion executive Abrima Erwiah and actress Rosario Dawson, was a regular exhibitor at the consumer-facing denim festival. We sat down with Erwiah at the festival last year to hear the story behind Studio 189 and to discuss the company’s sustainable mission.
