Recently, Lectra strengthened its links with major international fashion schools through two conferences: the International Fashion Technology Institute Foundation (IFFTI) conference organized by the Amsterdam Fashion Institute (AMFI) and the American Fashion Designers Association (CFDA) in New York. ) Fashion Education Summit.
Amsterdam: the focus of sustainable development in the fashion world
The International Federation of Fashion Technology Colleges (IFFTI) is an association for major fashion colleges around the world. This year, their conference was held in Amsterdam by the Amsterdam Fashion Institute (AMFI). The theme of the conference was “Breaking the Rulesâ€, which brought together 150 participants from about 50 fashion colleges, most of whom were Lectra's partners.
During the conference, Lectra established closer ties with the directors of these fashion colleges, including fashion colleges that use competitor solutions and fashion colleges that need evidence about our solutions. In addition, we have introduced Lectra's solutions to a number of fashion colleges, including the Amsterdam Fashion Institute, especially Modaris 3D.
The conference also provided an opportunity to perceive the latest trends and discover topics that should be included in the school curriculum. Anne-Laure Frizon noted at the meeting that sustainable development is the topic that most people talk about. The associations such as Patagonia and the Sustainable Clothing Alliance attended the conference, indicating that major fashion companies are increasingly participating in this area.
New York: Fashion Institutes Show Interest in Lectra's Strategy
More than 500 of America's leading women's, men's, jewelry and accessories designers are members of the American Fashion Designers Association (CFDA). The American Fashion Designers Association is a non-profit industry association that works closely with major fashion colleges in the United States. “The collaboration between education and industry is critical to driving innovation in the fashion world,†said Sara Kozlowski, senior manager of career development at the American Fashion Designers Association.
In order to strengthen our relationship with this important association and enhance Lectra's popularity in the United States, the Lectra North American team will participate in several events organized by the American Fashion Designers Association this year. The first event was the Fashion Education Summit, which attracted more than 150 educators and student representatives from 20 leading fashion colleges in the United States.
At the meeting, the topics discussed by the panel included: the role of fashion in society, sustainable development, the future of craftsmanship and the pioneers of reshaping fashion culture through innovative design and technology. Daniella Ambrogi introduced Lectra's strategy by citing four major trends, which aroused great interest from the participants.
The event provided an excellent opportunity for Lectra to partner with partner institutions and other fashion colleges that do not yet have Lectra equipment but want to learn about our solutions.
