WE AS A FASHION WEEK ORGANIZATION WE WANT TO BRING TO YOU, OUR GUESTS AND VISITORS, THE MOST AMAZING DESIGNERS, COLLECTIONS, INSTALLATIONS, SHOWROOMS AND MORE BUT WHAT ABOUT VALUES?

THE NORDIC FASHION WEEK GROUP DOESN’T ONLY CARE ABOUT FASHION, WE WANT TO MAKE A STATEMENT IN THE WHOLE INDUSTRY AND WE WANT THINGS TO MOVE AND CHANGE TOWARDS A BETTER AND MORE RESPONSIBLE WAY OF THINKING.

THAT’S WHY WE ARE ORGANIZING PANEL DISCUSSIONS FOR OUR GUESTS TO JOIN IN ON AND WHERE PEOPLE FROM DIFFERENT BACKGROUNDS, COMPANIES AND COUNTRIES WILL SPEAK ABOUT ISSUES THAT WE ARE CONFRONTED WITH EVERYDAY.

OUR FOUR MAIN TOPICS ARE SUSTAINABILITY, SEXUALITY, CULTURES AND BODY POSITIVITY.
