“We’ll often get no’s, it’s about how we can turn these no’s into a positive” - Daniel Peters

For this weeks episode we were joined by Daniel Peters, Menswear designer, fashion marketing specialist and founder of the Fashion Minority Report, an organisation that strives to diversify the fashion industry and help businesses create inclusive work place cultures. As you’ll hear in this episode, Daniel has a wealth of experience working in the fashion industry, with over 16 years experience of working in Fashion. Now Daniel’s main focus is on diversifying the same industry he has worked in through the Fashion Minority Report that he started in 2020. Daniel also sits on the British Fashion Council Diversity & Inclusion Steering Committee.Daniel candidly shares what led him to start the platform and why it is so important. He breaks down the many reasons why the fashion industry in the UK currently lacks a diverse range of people, how we can combat this and what we need to succeed in the industry despite the many barriers to entry and glass ceilings. Since filming, Daniel continues to be a trailblazer in the diversity space with the Fashion Minority report continuing to break down doors and build structures to diversify the industry.
