So far Creative Mikser events have focused on two major aspects of fashion design and industry - innovation as well as sustainability and social responsibility of the fashion sector. From the UK we have hosted Lauren Bowker, a material achemist from THE UNSEEN to talk about textile innovation and user experience in fashion. The discussion was then followed up at another Creative Mikser meeting, where Alice Holmberg, a conscious entrepreneur and founder of the design bureau That Something, introduced the audience to key concepts of sustainable and ethical fashion.
