Stemmen

Een nieuw narratief vraagt om een nieuwe uitdrukking. In Stemmen geeft Culture.fashion inzicht in de door het netwerk geformuleerde waarden. Een reeks quotes illustreert de individuele en gezamenlijke drijfveren voor het bewegen richting een toekomstbestendige modesector.  Stemmen is een nieuw soort manifest dat vorm geeft aan de meerstemmigheid die het project kenmerkt. Een  work in progress, steeds in ontwikkeling, een doorlopende dialoog.
