A conversation on sustainability & ethics in the fashion industry
As the founder of Parisian fashion brand IF COLLECTIONS, I have witnessed first-hand the challenges facing the fashion industry. Beyond the glamour and creativity lies a darker reality, raising questions about sustainability, labour rights and the social impact of fashion.
This presentation explore questions such as:
What lies behind the glamour of luxury fashion?
Fast fashion and overconsumption
Unpaid labor and workers’ rights
The rise of second-hand fashion
The history of cultural appropriation
How fashion polices our bodies and the tyranny of beauty standards
How can we, as consumers, contribute to change?
The presentation will be followed by a discussion with invited guests from the fashion industry and members of the audience, offering an opportunity to exchange perspectives and reflect together. The evening will conclude with drinks and an opportunity to mingle. The conversation will be held in English.
