Fashion is operating in an age of disruption on all fronts, most notably linked to challenges of sustainability and technology, both equally transforming fashion’s operating environment and consumer behaviour. In these uncharted waters, we continue to emphasise the importance of organisations collaborating with students (also the new generation) in fostering solutions. After slowly reacting, we are thrilled to finally see house hold brands taking charge and realising the importance of investing in students. It’s a brilliant idea that Gucci has partnered with Polimoda launching a 9 month Master's course in Retail Management. This partnership marries together corporate expertise with fresh student minds, leading to the potential of innovative solutions.
Connecting students with experts is a relationship we find essential, which is why for example we linked LCF Master’s Students with representatives from Floriane de Saint Pierre and the CFDA to brainstorm solutions in addressing the future of fashion.
