THE THEME OF THE COMPETITION - 2022
Conscious consumption.
Can fashion be eco-friendly? Of course! Guided by this concept, humanity can ensure the sustainable production, operation and disposal of clothing, footwear and accessories, which in turn will lead to a reduction in the amount of garbage on the planet and the preservation of the environment.
Conscious consumption in fashion is also the choice of brands that provide good working conditions for their employees, produce clothing collections from recycled materials, and build their production taking into account the impact on nature.
This idea can be a starting point, but should not limit participants.
Welcome:
1. Ecological textiles and bio/natural materials.
2. Recycled materials.
3. Innovative textiles and digital fabric printing
