To stay on top of where the future is headed, one of the things I pay close attention to are the trends impacting the fashion industry. ✅ The industry sits at the intersection of business model innovation, environmental sustainability efforts, music, branding, sales and marketing, sports, culture, art, design, media, technology, experience design, retail, finance, human capital, and entertainment—as a result, the ideas the creatives at the center of the industry create become trends and ripple through the economy. To stay on top of the ideas shaping the industry, I prioritize spending time with creators I believe are masters of their craft to get their perspectives on emerging technology and trends. ✅ I had the pleasure of spending some time talking with @ramadhan_designs founder Rammy Mohamed, getting her insights on everything from sustainability to art's influence on design, the retail industry ecosystem's evolution, cultural influences on creative output, and fashion trends. The best part was Joanna, and Andre joined us, and Andre got to design his first jacket—I'm grateful Rammy was willing to share her perspective with us and her gift of creativity with him.
