- Positive Change at the NEWGEN Space: No plastic water bottles will be used on site, instead water coolers will be positioned front of house and backstage, 95% of lighting used is energy efficient- reducing power consumption and heat output which also reduces the need for cooling in the space.
- Positive Change: The BFC continues its collaboration with the United Nations Office for Partnerships (UNOP) to further engage the fashion industry in the Decade of Action to deliver the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
There will be a celebration of LFW in October, 6th-13th, which will include a City Wide Celebration as well as parties and events that have been rescheduled with designer shows and presentations celebrated during this period. More information to follow.
