Fashion Forward is a think tank that aims to challenge the conventional discourse around the fashion industry. Co-founded with my colleague Sara Emilia Bernat, a sociologist and branding expert specializing in luxury and sustainable fashion, Fashion Forward is bringing accessible programming and publications to a wide audience, in partnership with a diverse group of individuals and organizations that want to help advance the state of the industry and its consumers.
MISSION
Fashion Forward takes macro frameworks of analysis and creates multi-level solutions for some of the world’s most pressing issues in fashion and fashion-adjacent industries. Through a multidisciplinary lens, we unravel changes and disruptions in fashion, distilling diverse and unexpected data into intelligent insights. We help people access critical information, empower thoughtful decision-making, and turn abstract ideas into human-centered solutions.
