How can fashion designers influence a garment’s sustainability, usability and recyclability? That was the focus of a designer challenge workshop held at the Redress Forum in Hong Kong. The workshop was a collaboration between Mistra Future Fashion, Textile Environmental Design (TED), Redress and Miele.

The Redress Forum 2014 was a three-day seminar in Hong Kong, asking the question “What is the future of fashion industry”?
Researchers from Mistra Future Fashion projects 1 and 3 contributed to the forum as part of their fields research ‘TED in China‘.
