108. Hand Luggage Only: WGSN Unpacks Future Travel-wear Trends

Hello and welcome to the fortnightly Create Tomorrow podcast, which brings you the latest innovations impacting the future of design and products.

Planning a vacation? Hands up if you overpack, underpack, or just epically fail when packing for a holiday. Well, this episode is for you. Sprinkled in among the forecasting chat, we have some hacks and tips on how to travel light with style. Unfortunately, we don’t have any advice on the best just-in-case item to pack when you get invited onto a yacht (inside joke – press play to find out more).

Take flight with us on this journey into the future of travel, as we discuss how coolcations and wellcations are likely to impact fashion design. Joining our host WGSN editorial director Bethan Ryder are Brielle Saggese, Insight Strategist, and Sara Maggioni Head of Womenswear. Find out how holiday habits are changing, due to climate change, wellness concerns and the White Lotus effect and what this means for your vacation wardrobe.

The team unpacks the latest trends in travel, from set-jetting to sleep tourism and helpful hacks like the TikTok-famous 333 method. Pack your hand luggage – and let’s go!
