Entangled Futures: Weaving our ecological path

This final lecture aims to expose the socio-environmental impacts of fast fashion and to explore ways to rethink the textile production through diverse examples of speculative design that emphasise on the cultural shift needed to reinvent our way of producing and consuming.

The lecture will follow from the projects led by the Centre for Sustainable Fashion presented by its director Dilys Williams, to the explanation of how speculative design can be a starting point to re-create our imaginary, promoted by Lorna Powell and Georgia Vincent, both alumni from London College of Communication.

We will discuss the Earth Logic Plan, a manifesto that urges to place ‘Earth before profit, before everything’ with one of its authors: Mathilda Tham and three postgraduate students. Migle Radzunaite (MA Fashion Futures), Vishal Tolombia, (MA Fashion Futures) and Hana Komanova (MA Biodesign), who will introduce their practices that embed, in very different ways, the 6 Landscapes of research implemented by this text.
