The Impact Of Fashion: Conferences

Hello trendsetters!
Last night I came across these TED-talks that I absolutely loved and I decided to bring them to you today.

The first conference, How Clothes Impact Your Life: Re-examining Fashion, is given by Dr. Jennifer Millspaugh who is a researcher and entrepreneur in fashion. Dr. Millspaugh is the co- founder and CEO of aesthetic Ventures which is a production studio which accelerates and builds companies in the fashion industry. She is also the founder of Austin Fashion initiative, an organization which enhances Austin’s fashion ecosystem.  Her goal is to research and design innovative brands and business models for a new era of fashion. In this conference she talks about how fashion shapes our economy, environment and individual identities. She explores our collective cultural relationship with the fashion industry  as she shares personal stories, behind the scenes insight and inspiration for the future of fashion.

The second conference, The Power of Fashion, is given by Maria Raveendran a 20 year old undergraduate with a passion for clinical research and the arts. She highly values leadership and is currently serving as the Vice President of partnerships for DECA U. In this conference she talks about how powerful fashion can be and the impact it can have on your daily life by referencing actual studies and life experiences.
