for a more spiritual and sustainable fashion?<br />
This panel seeks to understand this new form of<br />
consciousness from different perspectives. In a<br />
society where fashion is a prominent influence, we<br />
will talk to people for whom fashion is more than<br />
clothing or commerce, people for whom fashion is<br />
a way of contributing to a collective experience of<br />
life, and a way to influence what and who we value<br />
in our society.<br />

She will explain why and how new technologies are<br />
important to her work, and what is her vision of the<br />
future. We will also have an expert expound various<br />
