Fashion For Good Cause, Fashion For All

Since Jakarta Modest Fashion Week that held on July 2018, Think Fashion has started the Fashion for a Good Cause movement in the modest fashion industry. Modest Fashion Weeks includes and empowers fragile communities, such as economically unprivileged women, as well as tailors with disabilities and refugees. As a global leader, this movement aims to shift the modest fashion path from a creative industry and consumer focus to deeper topics; we believe that fashion should be about more than just fashion. "As a disruptive event series, Modest Fashion Weeks is distinguishing itself by raising awareness and promoting inclusivity – Fashion For All! We believe that everybody should have the right to access the fashion industry equally. “Franka Soeria.

During Amsterdam Modest Fashion Week, Think Fashion will be digging deeper into the idea of Fashion for Good” We have three main themes for #AMFW: Sustainable Fashion, Self-Discovery and Tolerance. Modest Fashion Weeks pushes these ideas to be recognised by our community and larger audience, hopefully it will inspire them to embrace these values,” says Ozlem Sahin
