The COVID-19 crisis is increasingly having an impact on the fashion industry. Fashion houses, shops, brands and designer businesses had to close, to stop or to slow down. Fashion weeks and shows were postponed or cancelled. The interconnected fashion industry today experiences an average market capitalization drop of almost 40% since the beginning of 2020. The fashion industry is thus challenged to be creative and innovative, to adapt to consumer behaviour following the corona crisis. Many key questions have been raised regarding the entire transformation of the fashion industry and its system.
Antwerp Management School (Prof. Dr Annick Schramme) and KOAN Law Firm (Mrs. Christine De Keersmaeker) join forces in a webinar which will tackle both economic and legal challenges, concerns but also opportunities due to the coronavirus crisis.
