Why attend
This is the only event in the Drapers calendar that is focused specifically on technology and innovation. The “future of fashion” can mean many things, but to us it is about achieving success in a new era.
With more than 30 speakers, and multiple opportunities to connect informally with others in the room, Drapers Future of Fashion is designed to inspire as well as offer value for time and money.
It unites those responsible for ecommerce, digital transformation, customer experience, merchandising, and growth in fashion retail businesses. Most importantly, Drapers Future of Fashion cultivates an environment of trust, collaboration and learning.
Countdown to Drapers Future of Fashion
It's really important to get together as a sector to talk about innovation. You are never going to come up with all the ideas yourself. It is always about meeting people, figuring out what they are doing. If you don't look externally, you will never find out.
Paul Wilkinson, product director, Deliveroo
Coming together at events like this, is great for expanding your horizons, learning about other business, learning about new things, bringing them back to your business and helping your business grow.
Luke Jonas, co-founder, Nest Commerce
It's exciting to hear what similar brands or what other companies are doing, to spark ideas and innovation, and then be able to build a good customer journey.
Sophie Drake, Never Fully Dressed
The great thing about this conference is that it removes the barrier of competition. Everyone comes together as equal peers, as business people, all trying to achieve goals. For me it's really smart to join events that have other like-minded similar business people in your space.
Elizabeth Azide, director of marketing, EMEA, BigCommerce
We are all in the same boat together and we learn together.
Monika Tamics, director of digital product, Ganni
