TED consults on Estethica guidelines

The TED Project has been asked to consult on the 2009 questionnaire which has been developed for Estethica, the ethical fashion initiative at London Fashion Week.

Fashion labels who wish to be part of Estethica are asked to fill in a questionnaire which details their sustainable practices and helps the organisers to choose companies who are in line with Estethica's core ethical principles.

Filippo Ricci and Orsola de Castro (of fashion label From Somewhere) the founders of Estethica, have chosen the TED Project, to be part of an 'expert panel' who offer advice and expertise to the initiative. Other organisations involved include the Fair Labor Association, Ethical Fashion Forum and the Environmental Justice Foundation.
