The Circle book 3 is coming: new partners, supporters and 4 teams of designers for the creation of the outfits.
“Transparency is a stepping stone towards a more ethical and responsible fashion industry, and so it has been key to incorporate this fundamental value throughout the production process, providing traceability through the supply chain, creating a tangible tool for brand expansion and designer awareness, sustainability and forging a responsible mindset for future collections. “
excerpt from the general concept ‘The Circle Book 3 / Re-establish framework’.
With this input towards improvement, we begin a new journey for the new edition of “The Circle Book”, an experience made of collaborations between multiple skills and teamwork to common goals.
Our blogs and social networks, together with those of our travel mates, partners, supporters, and founders TENCEL, Officina+39, will tell about this adventure with photos, backstage videos and informations.
