The fitness world is such a huge culture and to see a local Colorado company taking the fitness world by storm with such stylish and simple pieces, sure is inspiring! Let’s learn a little bit more Tyler Bently and his company TYDAL.

What inspired your love for fashion and fashion design?

What inspired me the most for fashion and fashion design is the idea that I can create something from nothing that people enjoy wearing. I’m also inspired by designers that create pieces that create trends rather than follow them. 2 such designers include Jerry Lorenzo and Daniel Patrick.

What is the first thing you ever designed?

The first thing I designed was a t-shirt that featured a digitally printed design of a woman in a ski mask shushing the viewer. My brand began as street wear and later transitioned to athletic wear. 

How long have you been designing?

5 years.

 Did you go to school for design or are you self taught?

Self taught.

 Who is/are your biggest inspiration/s? (Family, Friends, Designers, etc…)

My family has been my biggest inspiration for their continued support, entrepreneurial drive, and creativity.

What inspired your love for fashion and fashion design?

I’ve known from a very young age I not only loved clothing but I was influenced by everything I saw people wearing. I absolutely love the melting pot of styles you can see when you go just about anywhere. Whether I’m in one of the fashion capitols, or simply walking into a local coffee shop, I’m always fascinated to see what people woke up and decided to wear that day.

I found my place with fashion through sales. After working the retail gig for many years, I knew I needed more and moved on to work for different fashion and consumer brands in B2B, D2C and everything in between. It was through my diverse experience in working with women’s designer, menswear and lifestyle that I grew to love every aspect of fashion.

Colors and fun patterns inspire my love for fashion and fashion design! I fell in love with designing fabric in 2012 and haven’t looked back since. 

What is the first thing you ever designed? 

In high school I bleached a pair of red jeans until they were a beautiful light pink with dark pink splashes, cut them, and turned them into a skirt. I had an old tutu from a ballet performance which I cut the tulle from and sewed onto the bottom of the skirt. I wish I had a photo to share.
