Transform
Sustainability is becoming a huge influence on current trends and designs in the fashion industry, the theme Transform explores how materials will improve through a combination of nature and science. A huge theme throughout Transform will be how the ocean influences iridescent surfaces and fluid forms. Currently one of the most talked about topics is the threat to the planet and the ocean being consumed in plastic pollution, this will be an influential topic for future trends. As well as protecting the earth this notion also means protecting humans, we need to protect ourselves. Transform shows how we can do this by wearing stronger clothing with more structure to them. Technical fabrics and survivalist themes will remain influential, but they will evolve with a shift towards adaptable designs, ‘living’ materials, and lighter weights.
