The initiative aims to harness the power of retailers, media and celebrities to embrace impact driven fashion brands to create positive change and drive conscious consumerism. Supported by the United Nations Office for Partnerships, the Conscious Fashion Campaign drives awareness and advocacy to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all.

ReMode has also officially launched its Hosted Buyer Program and is inviting qualifying decision makers from established fashion brands and direct-to-consumer fashion startups to apply at ReMode.com. In exchange for participating in eight valuable 10-minute meetings with innovative ReMode exhibitors, participants will receive: a complimentary pass, access to all sessions, workshops, and networking events, as well as a travel and hotel allowance.

“We launched ReMode to redefine the industry narrative and catalyze a positive transformation for brands to operate more responsibly on all fronts — socially, ethically, and environmentally. With an impeccable lineup of thought leaders spanning innovation, sustainability, and finance ReMode will provide fashion decision makers the ideas, solutions, and contacts that will enable them to thrive,” said Pierre-Nicolas Hurstel, founder of ReMode.

ReMode is the first event to bring together innovators across the entire value chain of the fashion industry to share ideas, find practical solutions and forge new connections. Event programming will address relevant topics such as Omnichannel Marketing, Traceability and the Role of Blockchain in Fashion, Sustainable Sourcing, Waste as a Resource and how AI and Big Data are changing fashion.

“This is an incredible opportunity to rethink how we do fashion – how we design it, produce it, discard it and remake it. I can’t wait to drink in the energy and be inspired!” said Amy Hall, director of Social Consciousness of Eileen Fisher.
