The Seasonal in Fashion Future Lab does not seek to address questions of whether, but rather how and why. Fashion is a mirror of society, subject to constant change with its current set of conditions, challenges and needs. In this unique Fashion Future Lab program, Polimoda and AMD Akademie Mode & Design explore why and how the world of fashion interprets social change, takes advantage of technological progress and creates new ethical design and business concepts.
The two-week program is a thoughtful combination of varied topics and focuses on sustainability and innovation in textiles and business and also covers forecasting and sociological issues. Our Expert Talk shares developments in the fashion world with Italian and German professionals. A group project allows participants’ to work on a given task in an international team, thus deepening their intercultural competence. Following the topic "Circularity in Fashion - 3 Steps to Success," participants will work in groups to examine the longevity and sustainability of a freely selected product. The core elements of the analysis will involve design strategies, future textiles and consumption models. These topics will be addressed in advance by our experts.
The curriculum includes: trend forecasting for the development of a megatrend, the future of textiles, performance textiles, bioengineering, sustainable circular economy in fashion and textiles, bioplastic, startup strategies, sociology of the imaginary, contemporary fashion, textile sciences, handcraft techniques, graphic design and art direction.
