Future Talks: What’s Changed? Fashion Post-Pandemic.

12th September. Doors open: 6pm. Panel Talk 6:30 - 7:30pm

The pandemic promised a reset, the chance to rethink the way fashion works. But in its aftermath, are we back to business as usual, or have we capitalised on the opportunity for change? Repairing and buying preloved fashion helps the environment, but can we embrace it? How can the business cycle adapt and what is the future of fabrics and digital innovation? This panel brings together the designers, creative champions and industry leaders who are finding new approaches and ways to create a better, greener future.
