All Saints founder Stuart Trevor, Nobody’s Child, Fabacus and Soreto founder Andrew Xeni and social entrepreneur Safia Minney are among the “leading visionaries” lined up as key-note speakers for the Source Fashion event at Olympia London from 18-20 February.

Hailed as “Europe’s leading responsible sourcing show”, the Wednesday (19th) features a full day of “thought-provoking sessions” to be headlined by Trevor, Minney and Xeni, “exploring critical themes shaping the future of fashion, from sustainability to circularity and transparency, aiming to equip visitors with actionable insights to transform their brands and business practices”.

Session highlights will feature ‘The Urgency of Transparency’ with Xeni discussing how brands can lead the charge in accountability and ethical operations; ‘A Clothing Company That Doesn’t Produce Clothes’ with Trevor showcasing how his company is pioneering circularity by transforming pre-owned clothes into desirable fashion pieces; and ‘Ecosystem Thinking in Fashion: Redesigning for Regeneration’ where an panel including Minney will explore strategies “to adopt circular and regenerative models, scale these practices, and foster collaborative supply chain solutions”.

These keynote sessions will be complemented by speakers from industry-leading organisations including John Lewis, Vivo Footwear, Pepsi Co, Kingfisher, and environmental NGO WRAP.

The event, which has shifted to a mid-week positioning from a weekend slot following feedback from show visitors, “continues on its upwards growth trajectory with an 65% increase in visitors year on year”, said organiser Hyve.
