    BLUE CAST Ep 512 - Sina Steidinger

    BLUE CAST Ep 512 - Sina Steidinger This BLUE CAST Episode, Tuncay Kilickan talks with Sina Steidinger. Sina Steidinger is a denim designer, sustainability lecturer, and consultant dedicated to shaping the future of circular fashion. Originally from Germany, she relocated in Amsterdam—widely regarded as Europe’s denim capital—where she continues to push the boundaries of sustainable design. For Sina, denim is more than just a fabric, and jeans are more than just blue pants. A great pair of jeans should fit perfectly, be comfortable and flattering, and feel effortlessly special— never complicated. And today, denim should also be as circular as possible, but that’s only possible when circularity is embedded from the very first sketch of the design process. With a background as Head of Design in Germany and expertise in designing for MUD Jeans, a pioneer in circular denim, Sina seamlessly merges her passion for denim with innovative sustainability practices. She is an active member of Clean & Unique and serves on the advisory board of Circular Textile Days, embedding her work deeply within the Dutch textile community. Beyond design, Sina shares her expertise as a lecturer at multiple fashion universities, equipping the next generation of industry professionals with the knowledge and tools to make responsible choices. Through dynamic workshops, engaging lectures, and thought leadership, she is committed to driving change—because, as she says, she has a blue heart and a green mindset.  Tuncay Kilickan - Highly respected Industry figure, having cut his teeth at Turkish giant ISKO spanning 20 years.
