With eco fashion as one of the focal points, Berlin Fashion Week has a specific theme that clearly sets it apart from the fashion weeks in Paris, London, Milan and New York. The central hotspot for all things eco-fashion will be Greenshowroom and Ethical Fashion Show Berlin from June 28-30, 2016. This summer, the trade fair duo at the Postbahnhof will celebrate an anniversary and exhibitor record: 'A total of 168 international labels will give the event a scope that is greater than ever before, not just in terms of the surface area, but also the number of labels. The internationality of the event has also grown. Greenshowroom and Ethical Fashion Show Berlin is taking place for the tenth time.
The upcoming edition of the trade fair duo puts the topic of social responsibility firmly on the agenda and presents a variety of pioneering labels that place value on socially fair production conditions. During a three-day programme with talks and panel discussions, representatives from the worlds of industry, trade and design will highlight the important challenges and discuss solutions. The CSR day hosted by the Dialogs Textil-Bekleidung (DTB), which will take place in cooperation with Messe Frankfurt for the first time, tackles this topic. On the second day of the trade fair, June 29, 2016, at the club in the Postbahnhof, there will be a whole-day programme entitled ‘Responsible Management of Supply Chains – Social Compliance and Chemical Input.
