With nearly 15 years in the British fashion industry, Ahmet Emin Hondor shares his journey advocating for entrepreneurship and resilience among emerging designers with the British Fashion Council. He reflects on how representation and cultural identity have shaped his path, while also addressing the mental drain of navigating microaggressions masked as politeness as a Turkish man in London. For Ahmet, community engagement is crucial to driving meaningful inclusion in the British fashion industry. Beyond his work with the British Fashion Council, he organizes London's Gay Pride, championing diversity, mental well-being, and authentic storytelling. Through his efforts, he is helping to shift global narratives, empower LGBTQ+ voices, and build sustainable opportunities for underrepresented founders in the UK.
Redefining Inclusion in Fashion:
• Beyond tokenism – meaningful inclusion requires empowerment, not just visibility.
• Culture as creativity – personal identity shapes design, styling, and storytelling.
• Mental health matters – navigating exclusion and toxic environments with resilience.
• Pride & responsibility – corporate inclusivity should last beyond seasonal campaigns.
• Emerging designers – cultural heritage can be a competitive edge in business.
