The British Fashion Council (BFC) announced the full catwalk schedule for the London Fashion Week this September. Alongside the catwalk line-up, the show will also have access to panel discussions with key industry figures, who will share unprecedented insight to the fashion industry.
As a part of the new public-facing London Fashion Week proposition, the BFC has curated a Positive Fashion Designer Exhibition which will fully embrace #PositiveFashion, the initiative designed to celebrate industry best practice and encourage future business decisions to create positive change. #PositiveFashion is led by three key pillars: Sustainability, Equality & Diversity, Craftsmanship & Community; each brand showcasing in the Designer Exhibition answers to one or more of those pillars.
The BFC also announced that its designer brands and partners are participating in the Positive Fashion Designer Exhibition, which is open to both the trade and public audiences. The platform is thrilled to give these brands a platform to tell their compelling stories and educate the audience on how the fashion industry can be used as a force for change. The United Nations will launch the 17 Sustainable Development Goals, also known as The Global Goals to London Fashion Week. These goals are a universal route map and call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that every global citizen enjoys peace and prosperity by 2030. The #Togetherband tapestry installation will be part of the Positive Fashion Exhibition, to introduce the London Fashion Week audience to the goals.
