FashionCollaboration

👗More than What You Wear

Effort: 10 minutesFashion isn’t just about clothes — it’s about expression, identity, and innovation. Every outfit tells a story: who you are, what you value, and how you see the world. From sneakers that celebrate street culture to sustainable brands that turn ocean plastic into fabric, fashion connects art, technology, and social change. Trends come and go, but the way people use fashion to express creativity or make a statement never fades. The fashion industry is also one of the world’s most powerful and most polluting. That’s why new designers and innovators are finding ways to make fashion more sustainable, from upcycling thrifted clothes to using AI to reduce fabric waste. Social media, too, has transformed how fashion spreads. You don’t need to be on a runway to start a trend anymore. Whether you’re designing, styling, thrifting, or just expressing yourself through what you wear, fashion is a way to tell the world something about you. Your Task: With a partner, design a concept for your own fashion brand and convince a well-known designer to adopt your brand. It might focus on: Sustainability: upcycled or eco-friendly designs Inclusion: clothing for all body types, abilities, or cultures Innovation: tech-integrated or AI-designed fashion Give your brand a name, slogan, and short description of what makes it unique, and explain how it helps fashion move forward.
