Welcome back, everybody! It’s been three weeks since the last #MondayMaterials<\/a>. After that trip to the HMXIF, we paid a visit to the Design, Fashion, and Business<\/a> research grouping to chat with Claudia Henninger. Here’s what she had to tell us:<\/p>\n

Hi Claudia. Thanks for chatting to us. Can you start by describing your research, for the layman, in ten sentences or less?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Okay. So my research looks at micro-organisations. So anybody who\u2019s employing ten people or less in the fashion industry. And what I\u2019m particularly looking at is what those organisations stand for. So how, theoretically, do those business owners build their business.<\/p>\n

And I\u2019m also looking at sustainability. So more from the perspective of what materials they are using, and what processes they are looking at.<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s what I\u2019m doing in a nutshell.<\/p>\n

Great, thank you. Sounds exciting. And how can your research benefit the public?<\/strong><\/h3>\n
