Fashion&Lifestyles

Fashion can be instrumental in shaping the tone and nature of identity and gender relations. It is also an actual vessel of political legitimacy and unique space for artists, audiences, and other stakeholders in cultural and educational management. In this regard, the ACD team have initiated developed partnerhips and have developed educational sessions within the field of fashion industry, with the aim to reach wide population by providing gender- sensitive education through the fashion and life style- oriented activities.

Fashion can positivly stimulate interaction among nations, as a contemporary gathering of individuals who share and exchange their creative works toward common benefit and development.

Fashion has a symbolic power, in term of representation. Its exhibition constructs and persuades meaning through demonstrating. Especially traditional clothes transfers social standards and cultural concepts with regard to the body, gender, aesthetics, gesture , taste and cultural roles.

Hence, the symbolic power of „fabrics“ for development of identity, imposes in some way the spectar of legitimacy of the social order. In its political importance, fashion can raise awareness for diverse nations and cultures, but also for individuals and their contribution to the positive change and prosperity to communities.

Fashion media plays significant role in providing of trends, attitudes and values.

Fashion shows, fashion magazines, fashion blogging and all kinds of social media have became a major outlet for spreding trends and promoting a causes, such as healthy behaviour, but also to initiate changes of life styles, values and attitudes, set trends and contribute to the political changes regarding position of women in the society, women rights and education for girls, so as provide constructive solutions and models for development of the wider sense of belonging within a global homeland.

Brands have a potential for economical and educational empowerment of women and girls within developing countries and beyond. Building brand awareness and credibility for traditional crafts and techniques, fabrics, patterns and design, fashion industry can support especially female designers, which are the largest group of workers within this industry in developing countries to reach better working and life conditions, better staging of the self within family and society through economical independence and education and train young enterprenuers across all countries to learn how to connect and to support other projects and initiatives through their engagement.

Cooperation among professionals from creative industries (fashion, media) and those from education, training and consulting on gender issues, will result with building of synergies to support young generation in their orientation toward life styles and trends whith critical observation.
