We are asking for a £15 donation for the ticket fee to support building our community events and Textile Lab. If you are not able to donate right now we would still love you to come along, using the code: BLUETHREAD for free tickets.

This immersive evening brings together visionary makers, designers, and supporters to explore what’s next in sustainable textile innovation across all industries. From fashion to interiors, health to technology; textiles are everywhere, woven into everything we do.

We’re building a future focused textile lab that will support the next generation of talent, while offering a space for research, education, and collaboration. The Innovation Textile Lab aims to be a launchpad for new ideas, new materials, and products in the UK textile scene.

As well as showcasing exciting work-in-progress, the night will also raise support and sponsorship to help bring this ambitious vision to life.

Panel discussion:
Sara Elkholy - Programme Director CFIN (Circular Fashion Innovation Network BFC)

Helen Kirkum is a London-based designer known for her pioneering work in the sustainable sneaker movement.

Yasmin Keats - Executive Director of Open Style Lab

Dr Dawn Ellams - Senior Tutor at RCA Fashion & Textiles

Whether you're a potential sponsor, creative collaborator, or curious supporter, this is your chance to be part of something bold, necessary, and beautifully made.
