Future Fashion

Book Now

The National Wool Museum is calling on local students to design a fashion accessory that incorporates wearable technology and sustainable practices.

Students will work to a design brief, learning key design and prototyping techniques and how to use electronic circuits. They’ll consider the fashion and textile industries in the context of technological progress and give a second life to discarded fabric and clothing. Future Fashion empowers students to understand that they can make a difference through design.
