The area of fashion, clothing and textiles design is undergoing rapid development these years. Planetary boundaries as well as challenges with the current linear growth model is affecting this area in particular, as notions of fashion are typically connected with obsolete product design. There is a vital need to stimulate design approaches and ideas that are resourceful as well as relevant, with a focus on local systems and user experiences as exemplary drivers for global change. There is also a need to detach the area of fashion, clothing and textiles from resource depletion in ways that can contribute with new understandings of designer roles and the impact of design.
