Abstract:

Drawing on a reflection-in-action methodological approach, this paper proposes a three-layered temporal framework that transcends the short-termism of fashion trends to embrace a more complex perspective on fashion and futures. The Three Fashion Times comprises distinct yet interconnected temporalities that aim to conceptually inform alternative futures-thinking practices in the fashion field, more closely aligned with foresight and the deep roots of sustainability. Ultimately, this multilayered framework advocates for an expanded understanding of the relationships between fashion and time, suggesting conceptual seeds for illuminating paths for a fashion foresight practice through which fashion can become truly sustainable.
