Key Terminology Project

To improve the fashion industry, it's vital to understand its evolution.

The Fashion Connection has embarked on a collaborative project aimed at defining these terms and related concepts. Our ultimate goal is to create comprehensive and current definitions that can be adopted industry-wide.
