About Entre-Fashion Process
This platform, the ENTRE-FASHION Monitoring Tool, was created to support graduates of the Green VETRINE course and their mentors from local textile and clothing companies throughout a structured journey of sustainable product co-creation.
The tool allows participants to document their progress, respond to guided reflection questions, upload relevant materials, receive targeted mentor feedback, and prepare all the elements required for the final submission and public voting phase.
The ENTRE-FASHION process combines creativity, sustainability and real-world industry experience. Through a mentoring-based journey, learners transform an initial idea into a tangible, eco-conscious fashion item, while engaging with the realities of materials, production constraints, design decisions, and communication strategies.
