What To Expect

The Australian fashion industry is at a crossroads. The cost-of-living crisis in Australia has led many companies to strip back what they consider to be ‘non-essential’ spending, which too often includes ESG (environmental, social and governance) actions. This could have dangerous implications for people and the planet, furthering both exploitation and environmental degradation. 

We invite you to join us at this special event as we lift the lid on what’s happening in the supply chains of the biggest fashion brands. Our dynamic panel will delve into the findings of our 10th Edition Ethical Fashion Report & Guide, and discuss questions such as: What progress have fashion companies made toward ethical practices? How have consumer behaviours shifted in response to these changes? And does it really matter where we choose to shop? 

Together, we can help ensure that justice, fairness and good stewardship of the environment are central to the industry’s future.
