Known as the J Winter Fashion Show 2020, DHL announced the upcoming fashion show spotlighting the relationship between the fashion industry and sustainable logistics solutions to take place on February 6 at DHL’s Express John F. Kennedy Gateway.  Fashion show producer and supermodel Jessica Minh Anh will be strutting the latest in innovative fashion  from Europe, Asia, Australia, and America while highlighting diversity, unity, creativity, and sustainability.

“Since shipping and logistics is such a big part of the fashion industry, I believe it is crucial to minimize environmental impacts by using green logistics solutions. What drew me to DHL is its great commitment to sustainability. From optimizing transport routes and rolling out alternative fuel vehicles, to operating energy-efficient warehouses, DHL is reducing transport-related CO2 emissions. It is important for me to partner with a company that prioritizes the health of our planet,” said Jessica Minh Anh.

IWG’s brand Spaces, Veestro, Warren Tricomi, scheimpflüg, Cream Ridgewood, Tone House, and Gotham Hotel were confirmed in the announcement as Anh’s selected partners for the show due to their prioritization of sustainable practices.

“We are very excited to join forces with Jessica Minh Anh in this historic project,” said Reiner Wolfs, Vice President and General Manager, Northeast Area, DHL Express U.S. “Her powerful message of motivating the younger generation to take action for a better future aligns perfectly with our vision for zero-emission logistics.”

Official fashion participants of the sustainable logistics fashion show will be released closer to the show’s debut.
