Fashion Communication Conferences

FACTUM Conference: Fashion Communication in the Digital Age is a major international academic conference dedicated to advancing theoretical and empirical interdisciplinary research on the ways in which diverse communication practices shape the fashion industry, as well as fashion-related social practices and value systems. The conference particularly welcomes scholarly contributions addressing media in its broadest sense, sustainability, fashion brands, and visual and textual modes of communication. FACTUM provides an intellectual forum for the presentation and discussion of cutting-edge research that examines both established practices and emerging digital developments within the fashion and luxury sectors, with a focus on their implications for consumers and wider societal dynamics.
