What we wear is woven into daily life — fashion reflects personal style, cultural identity, and broader societal trends. Yet, despite the industry’s technological advances, challenges around sizing, sustainability, and ethical production persist. Join us to trace our city’s rich textile heritage, examine the urgent issues facing the industry today, and look ahead to innovative body scanning technologies that are reshaping the future of fashion.
Pint of Science is a grassroots non-profit organisation that has grown astronomically over the few years since two people decided to share their research in the pub. Although our mission has expanded, our core values remain the same: to provide a space for researchers and members of the public alike to come together, be curious, and chat about research in a relaxed environment outside of mysterious laboratories or daunting dark lecture theatres. We believe that everyone has a place at the table to discuss the research going on both on our doorsteps and far beyond. Our missions and visions are based around the people that matter most: our audience, volunteers, speakers, and our wider research community.
