We are proud to introduce ‘Taskforce Fashion 2020: Residency for Responsible fashion’. In 2020, FASHIONCLASH, M-ODE and State of Fashion are joining forces again to investigate the relevance and the transforming role of fashion concerning social-cultural issues. 

This year, we critically ask the designers of the future:

“As a designer, how would you like to take social responsibility within your practice?”

Together, we strive to make a positive contribution to the world around us by taking on a growing responsibility; whether it’s by helping the elderly, fighting racism, decreasing segregation or battling any other social-cultural matter that stands in the way of collaboration, mutual understanding and solidarity.

Collaboration and the design process are central to Taskforce Fashion. For our second experiment, Residency for Responsible fashion we have selected fifteen fashion talents, who - both individually and in teams of five - zoom in on three cities in the Netherlands: Maastricht, Tilburg and Rotterdam.

Get to know the Taskforce Fashion talents and what drives them below.
