Farming Fashion: Wool ~ Farmer/Designer Meetup at The King's Arms Oxford

An informal meetup of farmers and designers, accompanied by drinks and snacks in

the lovely Wadham Room of The King’s Arms Oxford. Following the success of our

autumn in person meetups, this will be another friendly gathering, coinciding with the

Oxford Real Farming Conference.

The aim of this meetup is to create connections and collaborations that can help

farmers diversify into fibre/fashion products and enable designers to work with

regional resources. The conversations will draw on the beautifully illustrated Farming

Fashion: Wool guide, launched by the SW and SE England Fibresheds earlier this

year.

This will be the last of our in-person meetups as part of the Future Fashion

Landscapes project, a collaboration between SW and SE England Fibresheds and

Centre for Sustainable Fashion, University Arts London.

The evening will be co-hosted by Emma Hague, Director of SWE Fibreshed;

Deborah Barker, Director of SEE Fibreshed and Dr Mila Burcikova from Centre for

Sustainable Fashion.

Drinks and snacks will be provided.
