The British Fashion Council has announced the schedule for its very first Institute of Positive Fashion Forum event, due to take place digitally Thursday 10 June 2021.

The day-long event, priced at £150, will see speakers including Alok Sharma (COP26), Stella McCartney, Marco Gobbetti (Burberry), Virgil Abloh (Off-White & Louis Vuitton Mens), June Sarpong (BBC), Priyanka Chopra Jonas (BFC Ambassador), Emmanuel Gintzburger (Alexander McQueen), Marie-Claire Daveu (Kering), Cyrill Gutsch (Parley for the Oceans) and Nicolaj Reffstrup (GANNI).

Speakers will come together to present practical steps for brands and businesses to create a positive environmental and social change - such as sustainability, circularity, social justice, diversity and inclusion.
