To use the words of Alvin Toeffler: “The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn”. In this spirit, here at ThePowerHouse we have been discussing the future of fashion education by talking with experts from all over the world to rethink the current structure. How will we teach our students to prepare for the future of fashion? How will we teach the teachers to adapt?
Digitalization, 3D design, 3D printing, electronics in textiles, new materials: These topics are not only trends, they are the future of fashion and #TheFUTUREisNOW.
To approach this subject, we promoted a webinar about the future of fashion and innovation in design education with high-end forward thinkers and experts from across the globe. Now we are making this conversation public and inviting you to join us!
