• Please, note that the presentations will focus on innovative, sustainable and circular design, materials&fabrics, manufacturing and distribution, taking into account the following #GSFW concepts too:

1. DESIGN: We encourage the growth of quality designed products that can reduce the negative impact on ecosystems and to prolong the life cycle of clothing (zero waste design, recycling etc.)

2. MATERIAL/FABRIC: We encourage people to use natural and sustainable materials (more biodegradble fabrics) with a high environmental and social value and to enable a better circular material flow / closed loop systems / cradle to cradle /.

3. PRODUCTION should be:

• Eco-friendly (including packaging)
• Fair, social & ethical
• Handcrafted, preserving the national heritage and value

We should deal with the innovative solutions to be used in the above processes (how to reduce waste, water, air pollution, CO2 emission or any negative environmental impact).
