The Importance of Culture and Values in Fashion explores how culture, identity and personal values shape the way fashion is created, presented and experienced. Through the perspectives of three creatives with different practices, the conversation looks at how cultural influences translate into collections and creative choices, the role of fashion and physical spaces in bringing communities together, and what happens when cultural values meet commercial realities. How can designers and brands grow, reach new audiences and build successful businesses while staying connected to the values and communities that shaped them?
