Beyond the Catwalk: Fashion, Politics and the Future of Place with Tamara Cincik, Fashion Roundtable
Description
In this episode of Architects for Change, host Jay Morton sits down with Tamara Cincik, founder and CEO of Fashion Roundtable, to explore how fashion has successfully built political influence — and what architecture and the built environment can learn from it.
Tamara shares her personal journey from a working-class background into the fashion industry and politics, offering insights on community, aspiration, and the importance of creative industries to the UK economy.
They discuss the decline and regeneration of the high street, why policy needs to better support creative sectors, and how valuing cultural capital can help communities thrive. This conversation unpacks how government could rethink support for industries beyond the usual "jobs for the boys" and why investing in creative industries means investing in place, people, and prosperity.
