Episode 04: Who Does the ‘Made In Singapore’ Label Serve?
This episode is one of many living questions. We question the fervent need to define ‘Singapore Fashion’ and discuss how we can participate in the system beyond wear, ownership and consumption. Weiqi emphasises the need for industry-level introspection and discourse in order for our local industry to recognise that its ongoing practices and ways of working are unsustainable. Singapore Fashion needs accountability, not definitions.
