Partners

 

Fashion Roundtable is proud to partner with Bath Spa University, University of the Year for Social Inclusion 2024, in the establishment of the National Centre for Fashion and Sustainability (NCFS), as our academic affiliate. Based in Bath, the NCFS is a space where leading thinkers, learners, businesses and communities will connect and drive the fashion and textile industry toward new, regenerative practices that are healthy for people and the planet. The Centre will run research and projects that explore every step of the fashion and textile journey, from farming practices, remaking, natural dyeing, zero waste design and garment end of life, to critiquing and transforming economic models, political drivers and new modes of teaching.
