WHY:
This event celebrates fashion’s surprising influence on our daily lives and the fashion industry’s underutilized power to change the world. The global apparel and accessories market generates total revenues of over $1.3 trillion per year, yet less than 1% is eco-conscious. Now is the time for change. Let’s take global action through fashion! The organization is doing groundbreaking work on both the producer and the consumer side to help transform the fashion industry and enable us to wear our values on our sleeve. Look out for their super cool movie coming out soon.
