 SUSTAINABLE FASHION CONCEPT

In the fashion world, which is among the sectors that pollute the environment the most, many brands have started to take steps towards being more environmentally friendly unsustainable.

While the number of environmentally friendly brands such as Everlane and MiH is increasing, world-famous brands such as Tommy Jeans are also making efforts to produce their products with sustainable understanding.

Sustainable fashion attracts attention not only with recycled products but also with brands that produce vegan products. Pangaia, which makes production with materials such as moss and organic cotton using innovative technologies, is one of the leading vegan brands. Apart from that, the base of the sneakers, which carry Sebastian Kopp's signature, is produced from organic rubber collected from Amazon, while 100% vegan leathers and recyclable materials are used.

It is possible to see examples of such products in luxury brands recently. As an alternative to nylon fabrics made from waste products, recyclable fabric ECONYL; began to be preferred by Gucci, Prada, and Burberry.

FUTURISTIC CONCERT DRESS DESIGN AFTER PANDEMIC

Things won't be the same after the world tames COVID-19, and that includes fashion. The spacesuit, which wouldn't look out of place at a Daft Punk concert, has a ventilation system that keeps others safe from viruses, providing some peace of mind when you shoulder to shoulder in crowded bars, venues, and concert halls. Production Club, the Los Angeles-based concert design studio behind the suit, wants the future of concert-going to be considerate to the most vulnerable populations.

The idea of venue-owned personal protective equipment that actually looks cool and fun to wear seemed like the best fix. Production Club didn't want to bog the suit down with so many features that the manufacturing process would be long and strenuous (the studio is now in talks now with possible partners). Rather, the team wanted to ensure a good mix of safety specs and relatively simple tech solutions that could be integrated through the wearer's own smartphone via an app. Production Club went through 15 prior iterations of the suit with varying colors and materials before settling on the final look and feel. It's meant to be loud and cheerful with the neon colors.

  EXHIBITION PREPARATION STRATEGIES IN THE
PANDEMIC PERIOD

You can always turn this period in which exhibitions are being re-dated in order to protect the health and safety of exhibitors, visitors, and employees, into an advantage!

You can review the plans that are important for your brand and update your sales strategy in this period, which can be counted as an additional time to be prepared for the upcoming exhibitions you will take part in. Alternatively, you may call your clients in advance that you expect them to visit your stand at the exhibition, remind them of the exhibition dates and have a talk about your new products, collections, and even take a chance to raise their pre-order. Meanwhile, you can work on a more detailed exhibition preparation plan includes the stand staff, stand design, printed marketing documents, logistics, and even your website and social media accounts.

Since the trade has already gained quite a momentum all over the world again, exhibition participants will be much more important than before.

It should be noted that exhibition preparation is like a long-running, at least a 6 months marathon, not a 4-days 100 m run. In order to attract plenty of visitors to your stand, to take orders from those visitors, and to obtain actual sales during the fair, it is highly essential to think versatile, use both internal and external sources within the framework of a long-term exhibition preparation strategy.
