Is This a Luxury Item? Rethinking Fashion, Materials, and What Matters

High fashion, low standards? Let's talk about it. A Climate Week NYC Panel
About this Event

Join us for a provocative panel during Climate Week NYC that asks:

Is this a luxury item—or just plastic wrapped in prestige?

With major fashion houses continuing to rely on fossil-fuel-derived synthetics, we’re bringing together a panel of creators, scientists, and disruptors to challenge the definition of luxury and explore the future of fashion materials.

From regenerative design to biotech innovation to radical community care, our speakers will unpack what it means to build a fashion system that’s truly intelligent and equitable.

Panelists:– Vanessa Barboni Hallik – Co-CEO, Another Tomorrow– Alden Wicker – Journalist and author, To Dye For– Ross McBee – Co-founder & CSO, TômTex– Christopher Griffin / PlantKween –Style icon, Nature advocate and community builder– Katya Moorman – Cofounder, No K*ll Magazine & No K*ll: Project Planet

Moderated by: Jasmin Malik Chua, Sourcing Journal
