# Project Description Policymakers, Designers, Consumers, For One Planet Emily Nolan Ravanona Summary Final work A multicultural fashion designer and sustainability advocate, LCF (Masters) and IFM (BA) graduate, with professional and academic experience in fashion design, collection development and CSR. Trilingual Parisian now based in London. Framed as an industry-informed and design exploration, the 'For One Planet' Masters project about accountability in fashion, places my practice at the intersection of both design and CSR. I welcome new work opportunities in both fields and am happy to connect. A multicultural fashion designer and sustainability advocate, LCF (Masters) and IFM (BA) graduate... College London College of Fashion Course MA Fashion Futures Graduation year 2025 The For One Planet project explores the role of accountability in the fashion industry, what it means for policymakers, designers, and consumers, and how it can be leveraged as a powerful tool to drive actionable change at their scale. By exploring how accountability frameworks shape the French and European fashion industries, this research reframes accountability away from a culture of blame and towards practical implementation and industry transformation. It examines how three key industry actors engage with accountability frameworks and how emerging European and French policies translate them into regulation. Framed as an industry-informed and design exploration, this project combines a 17,000-word dissertation with the design of an ‘Accountable Jacket’ . A comprehensive literature review demystifies the challenges surrounding accountability in fashion and maps the European and French regulatory ecosystems while interviews with high-profile industry experts and fashion practitioners provide valuable firsthand insights into their professional and personal experiences with accountability as policymakers, designers or consumers. The complementary design of the jacket - hand-printed with interview quotes - extends the dissertation's findings beyond the page into a tangible garment. Are you ready to be accountable? To be empowered? Final work 'For One Planet' Accountable Jacket - Generational Clash The Accountable Jacket is made of deadstock white cotton and hand-printed using a tracing technique to capture projected interview quotes onto the fabric. The front print in blue highlights the 'A' of Accountability as a key visual statement and reference to the focus of the dissertation. The model is also wearing blue tights, lino printed with letters that spell out the word accountability .

The letters printed onto the blue tights spell out the word accountability and represent an extension of the interview quotes from the garment to the body. Research and process 'For One Planet' Accountable Jacket - Visual Research and Projection Tests Initial visual research focused on typography prints and projection methods. A novel insight emerged: while projection is often used for performance purposes, both inside and outside of fashion, there is little evidence of its use as a tracing method to permanently transfer projected imagery onto a garment. Identifying this methodological gap prompted the design idea of transforming a fleeting, immaterial projection into a permanent print on a garment. Inspired by graphic design artists identified in the visual research, who used fonts and letters to create patterned illusions, the print seeks to highlight the ‘A’ of accountability as a key visual statement. Variations of the projected print were tested with text scale, capitalisation, weight, orientation. 'For One Planet' Accountable Jacket - Prototyping and Final Projection Process Every design element of the jacket is intended to reinforce the statement on accountability. The high collar pushes the wearer’s head forward, making them visible and symbolically accountable, while the forward bend of the sleeves intentionally conveys movement, suggesting that the wearer, and by extension the fashion industry, must move forward. While the front shows the printed illusion of the letter A, the back is shaped like one. The final jacket was sewn in deadstock white cotton prior to the projection and printing stages. The sleeve was the only part hand-printed while the pattern pieces were still flat, whereas the remaining quotes were printed directly onto the fully assembled garment.
