Forever Young Comittee

What future do fashion’s future leaders want to build? In this workshop, the Forever Young Committee brought together its community of young professionals and students to reflect together on the ambitions and aspirations of tomorrow’s fashion. All the under-30s present at the Midsummer Camp were invited to take part. Working in themed groups, they developed proposals on social issues, new business models, and sustainable materials.

• Build a community of young professionals capable of driving significant, systemic change in the industry.
• Support Paris Good Fashion in advancing its missions and challenge its roadmap.
• Organize the Sustainable Fashion Horizons conference series.

Launched as part of the call for projects of the IFM x Kering Sustainability Chair, this conference series, orchestrated by the CFEY, explores new sustainable business models. First guest: Vanessa Barboni Hallik, founder and CEO of Another Tomorrow. In April, Hasna Kourda, co-founder and CEO of Save Your Wardrobe, came to share her experience. More conferences are planned from September onward.

The CFEY worked with Chanel’s teams from July to define the hackathon topics, then supported the participants throughout the two days of developing their projects.

The CFEY was involved in the Reducing Manufacturing Impact working group from phase 1, with four members present in Cambridge. Phase 2, co-organized by Côme Citroën as part of his research at the IFM with Andrée-Anne Lemieux, is ongoing: a new session will soon bring together sustainable production experts and manufacturing leads from PGF’s members.

The CFEY organized its first event to bring together the PGF community and welcome the committee’s first members. Mr Gris and DJ Chic set the mood at Wanderlust.
