What challenges are fashion brands facing today? Unravelling in-house legal and HR issues

We invite you to join us for an online panel discussion, where we will explore the most pressing in-house legal and HR issues that are facing fashion brands in 2025.

Operating in such a fast-moving and globalised sector brings unique complexities. Recent legislative reforms, both in the UK and overseas, have further transformed the landscape – from shifts in employment law to the implications for international trade and tariffs.

Our expert panel will share insights on:

• Strengthening HR functions within fashion businesses 
• The commercial and employment impact of recent UK legal reforms
• The consequences of tariff changes introduced by the Trump administration

The panel will include:

• Pia Dekkers – former HR Director of Chanel
• Victoria Simon – Legal Counsel at Vivienne Westwood
• Claire Day – Legal Counsel at TFG Brands
• Paul Alger -International Business Director of the UK Fashion and Textile Association

The discussion will be moderated by Stephen Sidkin, partner at Fox Williams. 

Q&A

There will be an opportunity to raise questions with our specialists either in the course of the session or separately afterwards.
