Fashioning the Future Awards

Fashioning the Future Awards is the leading international cross-disciplinary platform for celebrating innovative initiatives towards fashion design for sustainability, its development and communication. By engaging the participation of students and graduates from across the world from a variety of disciplines relating to the design, development and communication of fashion, we increase the possibilities of finding innovation that can benefit us all. There is no limit to human ingenuity and creative thought.

Now in its third year, Fashioning the Future Awards 2011 invites you to provoke and nurture ‘Unique’ responses to our collective desire for a thriving world. The 2011 awards are a showcase for exceptional work that celebrates ‘Unique’ ways to create our futures.

Fashioning the Future is designed and coordinated by the Centre for Sustainable Fashion at London College of Fashion.

"We are at a time when everything will be reconsidered. In fact this is one of the most exciting times in design. No longer are we limited to just designing in one area, as we will now start to see, the power of ideas will come from the convergence of skills and knowledge. There is so much to take on board that will ultimately affect the way we all think, process and create. But great design can flourish in these complex times. The Centre for Sustainable Fashion will be at the forefront of this movement."
