About Openwear:
Openwear is the new open source concept and community in course of developing by EDUfashion.
In Openwear’s online space, small fashion producers, designers, stylists, students, interns,tailors, photographers, models, crafters, sewing cafes, silk-screen printers, fashion schools and others will all be able to open their own web space and personal profile, have access to the service and tools made available by the community, network, learn but also take part to the first collaborative, peer-produced, open-source fashion brand and its collections.
For the first time, the result of the innovative process of crowdsourcing will not be owned by a particular firm or company because the owners will be the community itself.
This blog will be our tool to keep you updated with all the topics and concepts put into play in the work in progress and to start a conversation with you before we start the real game!
Who started the Openwear?
EDUfashion project started officially at the end of last year and is financed with the support of European Commission. It is born out of the collaboration of Poper - a social communication studio based in Ljubljana – Ethical Economy – the company based in London providing web tools to build ethically significant relations, and 3 universities from Italy (Faculty of Political Science in Milano), Slovenia (Faculty of Natural Sciences in Ljubljana) and Denmark (Copenhagen Business School). We pooled our efforts to experiment with a new vision and practice of fashion based on collaboration, innovation and the sharing of knowledge and skills.
Stay tuned… |
