Graduate Fashion Week, alongside sponsors Farfetch, have announced that they will be emphasising the need for ethical and sustainable practices within the fashion industry, with the launch of its Considered Design Hub for 2019. The hub will be providing students with a platform to express their principles and designs and will be running three daily workshops and talks, which will consist of a morning daily talk from The Sustainable Angle, a midday talk from a senior member of Farfetch and an afternoon Q&A with a renowned ethical fashion designer. 

In addition to sponsoring the hub, Farfetch will also have a ‘Positively Farfetch’ branded stand where current students, graduates and inspiring designers can meet the team about opportunities and get advice and guidance. Furthermore, Farfetch will be sponsoring a brand-new Graduate Fashion Week exhibition award; ‘The Considered Design Award’, where students who have a project with a sustainable or ethical element can enter to win a prize.
