‘THE ART OF LOOKING’ - RONNY DE VYLDER  

Ronny De Vylder, Creative Visualizer & Consultant and Expert in Visual Merchandising, guides you how to get clients to your store. 

“Retailers will need to work harder to get their customers out of their chairs: the physical space needs to entice, to make it worthwhile the trip” says Ronny. With his “joy list” he will show you this does not need to be complicated. It all starts with the ART of looking. 

‘ROLE PLAY SS 23’ - JAN AGELINK  

Trend forecaster Jan Agelink of Buro Jan Trendman tells you all about Identity & expression in fashion: fluid / inclusive / purposeful. 

Our identity is intransition, as a result Jan Agelink sees a new design language emerging in the field of fashion, design and lifestyle. In this talk, Jan focuses on the topic: Why do we choose what we wear, and more importantly, how can we consciously use our choice of clothing to influence our mood? 

‘A WORLD OF CONTRADICTIONS’ - DAVID SHAH  

Trend centipede David Shah shows you how to deal with all the extremes in this post-corona time: 

We live in a domain of contradictions. “Out of lockdown, newfound freedom has respawned a desire for individuality – the power of being different and exaggeration both in style and colour,” says David. 

At the opposite end of the equation, we have a more reflective approach. Consumers are impressed not by novelty but by longevity.  

David wonders in this talk: How do we deal with these extremes? How do we balance our lives? How do we navigate a design path? Clearly, the future is going to evolve in a hybrid way. But there is a common denominator: our concern for the environment. Going back is just not possible!
