... Circular Society Mall 

The 202030 Think & Do Tank is a project by studioMM04 that develops pragmatic solution pathways for a just twin transition of fashion and lifestyle industries. We believe that most solutions are already existing and that pre-competitive collaboration is key. 

The mission of this first 202030 Think & Do Tank is to develop solutions to turn consumers into circular users with the help of fashion and lifestyle culture, thereby supporting business and politics in a just ‘twin transition’ to a circular economy. Over the past five months, the first work stream of the Think & Do Tank has explored the question: Can shopping centres become centres for a circular society? Through deep research, expert interviews, and multi-stakeholder workshops, the group has developed a whitepaper and a solution pathway. 

As part of this work, we are curating an exhibition during Berlin Fashion Week 2026, where we will publicly present the results and the whitepaper, as well as showcase circular solutions. The exhibition opening is by invitation only. The exhibition will be open to the public on Saturday 31st January, 10am - 5pm. 

Château Royal presents the second edition of its conversation series inspired by the archives of Angelica, moderated by Alexandra Bondi de Antoni. This year, the focus turns to the role of objects in fashion — both physical and emotional — and the memories, meanings, and visions they carry.

Across two lunchtime sessions, a leading creative guest will explore two themes:
Object of Vision — how we see, imagine, and shape fashion, from creative ideas to business realities.
Object of Form & Emotion — how materials, shapes, and tactile elements influence creative work and emotional expression.

Rather than a classic talk, the series invites a more intimate encounter, offering guests a moment to pause, connect, and look beyond the runway.

In partnership with eBay, Fashion Council Germany is organizing the fourth edition of the talk series „METAMORPHOSIS – dialogues about change“, as a part of Berlin Fashion Week. The series will feature international and national experts in circular economy and the fashion industy, engaging in dialogue about the varies facets and essential transformations needed in our industry.

Step into a new dimension of fashion and design as 6AD STITCHES launches its first-ever 3D printed bag collection — combining futuristic innovation with the timeless art of crochet. 

Inspired by the dazzling world of casinos and game nights — traditionally male-dominated spaces — this event flips the script. With 6AD STITCHES being a female-founded brand led by young designer Antonia Sprenger, the pop-up shows these aesthetics with a powerful feminine twist. 

The concept combines two worlds: the futuristic rise of 3D printing and the heritage of handcraft. Like the casino, crochet has a deep-rooted history — while both stay relevant today. Now, they meet in a bold, interactive universe. 

Expect a visual experience where the room transforms into a glamorous, fashion-forward game night. Think: models showcasing the new bags in full 6AD looks, glowing tables, a DIY corner where you can craft your own keyholder accessory, and interactive casino-style games — all wrapped in an aesthetic, immersive setup. 

Conversationsnetwork will act as the official host of this two‑part event, while 6AD STITCHES serves as the creative and cultural centerpiece. Conversations network „CN“ is a creative network built on communication, connection, and culture. Founded by two women who believe that feelings drive business — and creativity drives everything else. Together, we are shaping an experience that merges community, culture, strategy, and modern female leadership into one cohesive concept. The Event reimagines the contrast between open cultural spaces and exclusive high‑society environments. The day belongs to the community — the night belongs to strategy, female excellence, and high‑end culture. 

Come play, create, and witness the future of sustainable design in the most stylish way possible. Fashion has never felt so fun.
