This event is part of the sustainability campaign <think good> that Isetan Shinjuku has been promoting since 2021, and aims to realize a sustainable society and a colorful and prosperous future. This year, as an activity to pass on culture, we are planning the <Isetan Mitsukoshi Mirai Award>, in collaboration with the next generation who will be responsible for the future of the fashion industry, and in which fashion school students will have the opportunity to create works of art using pieces of leftover material collected from various companies.

In the talk show, Stella touched on the sustainable fashion initiatives she implements with her brand and the changes required of the future fashion industry. “The fashion industry is at a major turning point. In addition to reducing our environmental footprint and using sustainable materials, we must also change our perspective and innovate to look ahead.” What was particularly impressive was her comment on the importance of nurturing the next generation. “What is needed is knowledge and the ability to take action. It's important to start something.”

As awareness of a sustainable future grows, Stella McCartney's message goes beyond the fashion industry and serves as a reassuring message for the next generation of innovators.

In the campaign to be held at Isetan Shinjuku store starting April 9th, 21 award-winning works will be displayed in the store main show window.
