From the rise of smart glasses to wearables becoming increasingly integrated into everyday life, technology is redefining how we relate to our bodies, fashion, and urban spaces. Moderated by Luigi Torre of ELLE Brasil, this conversation brings together Francesca Ciafrè, Marketing Director for Professional Solutions Brazil at EssilorLuxottica, and creative directors Felipe Matayoshi, from PACE, and Lucas Leão, founder and creative director of the brand bearing his name, to discuss how innovation, design, and human behavior are transforming the fashion industry. From the evolution of materials and new design possibilities enabled by emerging technologies to the influence of streetwear on new consumption habits, and the ways iconic eyewear brands are incorporating artificial intelligence, augmented reality, and other digital tools into product development, campaigns, and consumer engagement, this session explores the trends set to redefine the relationship between fashion, technology, and lifestyle in the years ahead.
