For the first time in Mexico, this edition will take place at ITESO University in Guadalajara. With the aim of strengthening and expanding knowledge, sustainable and regenerative practices within the fashion industry, Universo MOLA is leading this event for the third time and is traveling to a new destination to showcase its attributes and continue connecting voices across Latin America.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hilos <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">es una de las propuestas culturales de <\/span><b>Universo MOLA<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hilos is one of the cultural initiatives of Universo MOLA, the movement that, since 2016, has sought to transform the Latin American textile and fashion industry by raising awareness through the promotion, development, and visibility of sustainability as a key factor in the production of our fashion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>CLOTHING CIRCULATION<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\" translation-block\">The main impact project proposes to circulate more than 1,400 unused items (accessories and clothing) donated and recovered by the brands LOB and Abac\u00e1 and redesigned using upcycling techniques by more than 25 students from universities in Guadalajara. This allows to showcase new local designers and brings issues concerning sustainability in fashion to the table.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These mini collections will be on sale during the congress, providing financial support to the designers and donating a percentage to the Entre Soles y Lunas Foundation. Likewise, garments in perfect condition will be on sale without any alterations to contribute to the funds raised for the Latin American NGO.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>PROMOTING LOCAL TALENT<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\" translation-block\">In this regard, coordination and cooperation are promoted with institutions that collaborate with the program's primary objective, which is to impact and transform the social fabric and the territory with sustainable practices. That is why Hilos is co-organized with ITESO, a university with a wide reach in its region and a very broad academic offering, and with the Centro de Dise\u00f1o de Modas, a space with which Universo MOLA has previously worked, training its teachers and students.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\" translation-block\">In addition, Hilos M\u00e9xico will feature the participation of 10 local emerging designers and brands focused on sustainability, in a pop-up space provided by the event for the sale of their products. This will help strengthen the social fabric and economic dynamics in Guadalajara through positive impact.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pop Up Brands: Yanel Artesan\u00edas, GuiRi, Arek\u00fa, Sarafreika, Konn Accesorios, Ach+, Trapillo Pillo, Verde Amor, Naturia Tienda Artesanal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>HYBRID INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\" translation-block\">In a relaxed and enthusiastic setting, this third edition of Hilos, unlike previous editions, will take the form of a congress and offer attendees a fascinating two-day program of essential and topical discussions led by more than 25 top-level speakers.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>MONDAY, 27th\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\" class=\" translation-block\">4:00 p.m. - 4:30 p.m. \/ Hacking sustainability: key decisions for designing with purpose and the future in mind \/ Mireille Acquart<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\" class=\" translation-block\">4:30 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. \/ The power of entrepreneurial vision \/ Jacob Pulido<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\" class=\" translation-block\">5:00 \u2013 5:30 p.m. \/ Business with purpose: The future of local fashion \/ Noem\u00ed Pizano and Diana Hern\u00e1ndez<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\" class=\" translation-block\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">17:30 \u2013 18:00 \/ <\/span><b>M\u00e1s all\u00e1 de la venta: c\u00f3mo la econom\u00eda circular y el consumidor consciente est\u00e1n creando 5 nuevas fuentes de ingreso para la moda<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \/ Alejandra Farf\u00e1n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\" class=\" translation-block\">6:00 p.m. - 6:30 p.m. \/ Responsible fashion: debunking myths for real social and environmental impact \/ Cynthia Fragoso<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\" class=\" translation-block\">6:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. \/ Impact Business Models in Latin American Fashion \/ Valentina Su\u00e1rez<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>TUESDAY 28th<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\" class=\" translation-block\">10:00 - 11:30 \/ Designing with awareness: practices that regenerate \/ Itzel Guadalupe Real Guerra, Carol Mendoza, Achtli Nelli Bautista Monge, and Jehsel Lau<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\" class=\" translation-block\">11:30 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. \/ The color of Earth in conscious fashion \/ Romina Monserrat G\u00f3mez Monta\u00f1o<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\" class=\" translation-block\">12:00 - 12:30 \/ From waste to purpose: transforming waste into high-value designs \/ Estefan\u00eda Pichardo<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\" class=\" translation-block\">12:30 p.m. - 1:00 p.m. \/ What is on my fabric?
