Press release 31.08.2024: Kick-off for FashionTEX and Highlight of the Capital of Culture 2025

The European fashion world is being enriched by a new,
groundbreaking initiative: FashionTEX. The project aims to make a significant contribution
to the training of fashion designers, to anchor digital and sustainable fashion design even
more firmly in research and teaching and thus in everyday life. Experience in digital
fashion design is to be passed on to students and the training programs improved. Eleven
renowned European universities and fashion schools are working together. FashionTEX is
initiated by the European Cultural Forum e.V. from Dresden, supported by the European
Union. The focus is on topics such as sustainable fashion, innovative technologies and
intercultural exchange.
