U.N. Fashion Network

United Nations Fashion and Lifestyle Network Submission – The Crescala Collective

Implementation of the Project/Activity
We promote sustainable development across the luxury fashion value chain through curated Collective events, social media, professional networking, partner referrals, and media outreach.

Arrangements for Capacity-Building and Technology Transfer
As a lean, high-impact agency, we don’t produce technology but champion its adoption. We share knowledge—best practices, innovations, and tools—to help designers balance environmental impact with business success. Through small runs and higher price points, we position luxury as a proof-of-concept model for sustainable fashion industry-wide.

Coordination Mechanisms
Founder & CEO Jodi Sandman and VP Scott Sandman lead Crescala’s vision. Together with our team and partners, we actively build connections, exchange resources, and collaborate to solve challenges across the fashion ecosystem.

Evaluation
Each designer sets tailored growth and sustainability goals. We require clear commitments to fair labor, safe conditions, and eco-responsible production. By supporting the use of low-water cotton, natural fibers, plant-based materials, upcycling, and slow fashion, we help elevate sustainability as our designers scale.
