7. Prototyping
- QR codes on tags of clothing items, customers will get to know about the initiative from the salespeople and they will ask the customers if they like the idea or not
- Ask the customers to fill in the questionnaire (in paper or online) when they make a purchase

6. Marc wants to change the business model of his brand and start upcycling and recycling their own items or clothes from other brands that customers will bring. So he wants to create a team within a brand that will work on this part of the business and he looks for seamstresses. Eva was self employed before but now she wants to make an impact with her work...

5. Idea selection: QR codes on the tags of clothing sold at the store. When a client buys an item, he or she can scan a code and discover 3-4 styles to choose from that can be upcycled from an item in the future, if the client no longer wishes to wear a particular piece of clothing. Also, if the customer does not wish to upcycle, a QR will have the info about...

I think that the industry should produce less items of higher quality and, as someone wrote before, use the money spent on marketing on sustainability instead. I personally buy clothes only if I really really like them only in that case I am sure that I will wear them as long as they are wearable and then I either donate them or try to upcycle somehow. And...

I voted for the use of leather. I am against the production of this faux PVC and PU leather which harms the environment greatly and should not be used in mass market brands at all. If meat and diary industry exists and there is all this leather as by-product from it, then environmentally friendly alternatives should be created and used for the process of...

I have chosen the cultural agenda, as I think that no change is possible until there is no change in the consumers’ minds as to why and for what they consume so much of everything, even if it’s not absolutely necessary. I would really like to explore this.
As I am a stylist, I can teach my clients to become more conscious about their consumption and what it... -
Sustainability must be very important for businesses in all industries.

As of now, I am a fashion editor of an independent magazine PrimeTime...

Consumer might think about the price, the fit, the quality and the brand. Some choose to buy, spend more money and enjoy the piece for a long time, while others buy cheaper, of lower quality and wear the item for a season and forget about it. I personally consider if the piece represents the person that I am, is it comfortable for me, even if it’s a festive...

I think that fashion has a political aspect today even more than before. Dior, Gucci, Stella McCartney, Chanel to name a few are politically active if I can say so. Fashion reflects the society greatly, and if designers choose to attract attention of the public to the issues that they are concerned with, using their platforms, I think that’s great!

I think, all theories are working and yes, I agree that fashion is the decision of a group of designers, who can get their inspiration from everywhere - art, cinema, streets etc (not without the help of forecasting agencies). And it’s interesting for me to see, how the working class is trying to “look” like the elite in all their serious attempts, but the...

Personally, I like all the three temporality models and I think that they can all coexist in a fashion brand

There are fixed costumes for sure nowadays, beginning from flight attendants and medical staff to school uniforms and corporate workers, we can see how they evolve, having slight changes in design or fabric or adornment, but the whole idea stays the same - being a uniform for people in various spheres of work and study
