One of the aims with the Baltic Fashion project has been to strengthen the fashion industry with a focus on small and medium sized enterprises. The Baltic Sea Region has a large textile industry but all countries have different traditions and characters in regards to textile and fashion. Some countries are strong in textiles and production but not in fashion branding, and vice versa. Some countries still have a large textile manufacturing industry, whereas other countries lost most of the textile manufacturers 30-40 years ago. One of the work-packages within the Baltic Fashion has therefore focused on developing innovative topics as basis for carrying out activities that will support the fashion industries in different ways. One aim has also been to transfer the innovations and learning outcomes between the partners.
