Fenomena ini tentu tidak terlepas dari peran individu ataupun kelompok di dalam industri kreatif yang terus berinovasi. Dilatarbelakangi oleh dunia fesyen yang semakin digemari oleh berbagai kalangan dan merupakan alat komunikasi non verbal antar individu, maka diperlukan sebuah tempat bagi para pecinta fesyen untuk bertukar pikiran, bersosialisasi, dan berkreativitas. Pasar Baru merupakan salah satu kawasan yang berpeluang untuk dijadikan kawasan berkumpulnya para fashion designer, karena seperti yang banyak orang ketahui Pasar Baru merupakan pusat perbelanjaan tekstil yang terkenal sejak lama. Selain darpada itu, kawasan ini juga sudah mulai ditinggalkan oleh pengunjung karena dianggap membosankan dan tidak teratur. Maka dirancang sebuah proyek yang dapat menjadi tempat komunitas fesyen dan juga sebagai kawasan hiburan yang lebih terbuka dan bersifat “leisure”. Dalam hal ini metode yang digunakan adalah metafora dengan menerapkan motif batik cina benji pada bentuk bangunan secara tidak langsung (intangible) dan penerapan motif batik tersebut pada fasad bangunan (tangible). Di bagian lantai dasar diisi dengan program yang lebih bersifat publik dan leisure  seperti taman, courtyard, angkringan, pameran, dan workshop. Sedangkan dilantai atas lebih yang bersifat regulated seperti studio fashion, r. seminar, r. Drapping yang ditujukan bagi para fashion designer ataupun orang – orang yang menggemari dunia fashion. Dengan adanya fasilitas – fasilitas tersebut diharapkan ke depannya Pasar Baru akan menjadi pusat fashion yang mempengaruhi masyarakat untuk lebih banyak membincangkan tren lokal dibandingkan tren luar negeri.

This article was prompted by the discovery of the archive of international fashion designer Gerald McCann, hidden in a garage in Fleetwood, Lancashire, UK. The contents of the archive revealed a treasure trove of press cuttings, photographs, fashion drawings and interviews as well as designs and costings from a once well-known designer, whose significance to the global fashion industry is sparsely documented and largely forgotten. The article reveals the history of the designer, who graduated from the Royal College of Art in London in the 1950s, during the tenure of Professor Madge Garland, and forged a career at the heart of ‘Swinging London’ in the 1960s. He was lured to the USA in the 1970s, returning to the UK in the 1990s as a designer for House of Fraser and Harrods. The research offers the first significant assessment of McCann's position in global fashion and the value and relevance of his legacy, as well as exploring the rationale for documenting the history of forgotten fashion designers.

Along with the rapid development of the creative fashion industry in Indonesia, fashion designers are required to be more creative to compete internationally. Streetwear has become a fashion stream loved by millennials & gen-z in the city of Jakarta. Lack of space to accommodate their creativity in the city of Jakarta is the problem of this project. Tebet area is an area located in South Jakarta, Kelurahan Tebet, South Jakarta city. The Tebet area has developed quite rapidly. This area is surrounded by commercial office buildings. This area is surrounded by streetwear fashion distros, some have been developing for a long time and some are just starting to enter the fashion industry. As the streetwear fashion industry develops in Indonesia, it can improve Indonesia's economy, but it can also become a boomerang due to the government's lack of attention to increase the creative streetwear fashion sector. The Tebet area is very suitable to respond to this problem because with the surrounding fashion distributions it can be concentrated into a fashion hub to work and collaborate. Keywords: Community; Public; Tebet; Streetwear AbstrakSeiring berkembang pesatnya industri kreatif fashion di Indonesia, para fashion designer dituntut untuk lebih kreatif untuk bersaing secara internasional.

Fashion color trends are an essential marketing element that directly affect brand sales. Organizations such as Pantone have global authority over professional color standards by annually forecasting color palettes. However, the question remains whether fashion designers apply these colors in fashion shows that guide seasonal fashion trends. This study analyzed image data from fashion collections through machine learning to obtain measurable results by web-scraping catwalk images, separating body and clothing elements via machine learning, defining a selection of color chips using k-means algorithms, and analyzing the similarity between the Pantone color palette (16 colors) and the analysis color chips. The gap between the Pantone trends and the colors used in fashion collections were quantitatively analyzed and found to be significant. This study indicates the potential of machine learning within the fashion industry to guide production and suggests further research expand on other design variables.

Purpose – Fashion and textile industry has confronted to participate with the sustainable industry and society proactively not by the government regulations, but by the shareholders or consumers driven with corporate social responsibility. The purpose of this paper is to consider methods applied for the sustainability of products according to Korean domestic fashion and textile companies and clothing types and to investigate the limitation of current sustainability methods of companies. Design/methodology/approach – The study used document analysis and case studies of 396 companies. The study looked into newspapers, monthly magazines, and publications of fashion companies and internet web sites of almost every possible type that have been issued to date and analyzed the previous studies as well. Findings – The companies’ strategies are of three groups, the uses of environmental friendly materials: 36.9 percent (natural fibers, recycled fibers and biodegradable fibers), apparel reuse: 4.5 percent (remodeling/alteration and transform/combination with more materials), and eco-marketing promotions: 58.6 percent. For women’s and casual wear section, the methods used with organic materials and the green-campaign messages appeared frequently, while in the men’s wear section, coolMapsi, 0or warm OnMapsi for business wear did a lot for the low indoor energy consumption, such as no neck-tie in the hot season or wearing underwear in the cold season. Originality/value – Fashion and textile products have provided the key solutions for the generation’s happiness, identity, value, self-realization, health and role. There have been the low quality and similarity of fashion products from mass production and high speed and we should consider sustainability for the next generation and society. But the current problem in the industry is that most of eco-product developments are only short term. Also, from the high cost of eco materials and processes, there is a limited portion of sustainability section among total products and low design quality of fashion or the low profit outcomes.
