Event | Mining for Solutions – A Panel Talk on Sustainable Practices in Fashion and Jewellery
For the occasion of Obsessed Jewellery Festival ‘23, Current Obsession and Amsterdam’s, Fashion for Good team up to present a panel talk discussing the ubiquitous issue of ecologically sustainable production practices, in both the Fashion and Jewellery industries.
As two major contributors to culture and creativity, both fashion and jewellery are among the most personal and intimate objects, and offer some of the most fruitful terrain for bringing a conversation on sustainability directly to the consumer. However, the obscurity and mystery surrounding where our material resources come from, presents one of the greatest obstacles to achieving this. And information for the public, on what, how and why to buy responsibly, is yet another. Please join us for this very special panel event, in which we address these very issues, and hear from leading thinkers from both worlds, about how we can tackle our common concerns, from within our respective communities.
AGENDA:
14:00 – 14.30 | Guests arriving
14.30 – 15.15 | Panel part 1
15.15 – 15.30 | Short break
15.30 – 16.15 | Panel part 2
15.30 – 17:00 | Mingle and wrap up. Moving to The Pool (across the street) at 17.00 for their opening.

Event | Ancestral Echoes: A Fashion Performance
You’re invited to “Ancestral Echoes,” a fashion show by fashion designer, dancer and music artist Jazmon Voss that transports you into a realm where heritage and modernity intersect. “Ancestral Echoes” draws its inspiration from Afro-Native American roots and celebrates three looks crafted from a blend of vintage, scrap, and recycled materials. These looks blend fantasy, movement, and emotion, adding depth to the storytelling of the collection. Stick around and grab a drink with us after the performance.
