How can we bring about cultural shifts by reimagining beauty as a form of art and fashion as a tool for creative expression and liberation? We will hear from Dario about the Slow Fiber Movement in Italy and its radical approach towards sustainability. Alessandra will share more about her work at the intersection of fashion, sustainability and beauty, which she also explored in a three-part series on REDWeb <https://radicalecologicaldemocracy.org/beauty-and-fashion-imagining-alternatives-part-3/> last year. *Date*: Thursday, 23rd January 2025 *Time*: 6.30 pm IST | 1.00 pm GMT *Link to Register: bit.ly/RED-fashion-webinar <http://bit.ly/RED-fashion-webinar>* Please do join us and share widely!
