Within Who’s Next, taking place from September 06 to 08 at Porte de Versailles in Paris, Impact and Neonyt Paris stand out as the space dedicated to committed fashion. For the past six years, the events have been supporting brands, highlighting sustainable solutions, and connecting professionals seeking transformation.

This edition places special emphasis on ocean preservation, a guiding theme carried by key partners, a carefully curated selection of ethical brands, and a packed program of talks and podcasts. More than just a space, Impact and Neonyt Paris offer an engaged experience, showcasing a fashion that is conscious, creative, and in tune with today’s global challenges.

All brands under the Impact and Neonyt Paris label have been independently reviewed and approved by expert Lavinia Muth. The selection is based on strict criteria: sustainability, transparency, innovation, and social responsibility. Beyond the dedicated forum, this responsible path continues throughout the trade show: brands like Got Bag, Komodo, Panafrica, W.O.P, Moea, Rainkiss, and Rivedroite Paris proudly display the Impact and Neonyt Paris label at their booths, making it easier for you to identify them.

This season features a strong partnership with Act! With Surfrider, a grassroots collective of activists committed to protecting marine environments. Through an active presence at the forum and contributions to the conference program, the association raises awareness about fashion’s impact on ocean ecosystems, especially concerning textile microfibers and plastic pollution.

To promote the reduction of single-use plastic, Dopper brings a fun, interactive activity to the forum: 300 reusable bottles to win in a scratch-card game open to all visitors. At the same time, the “Bring Your Bottle” initiative encourages everyone to come prepared and use the water refill stations available throughout the event. A small, collective act to protect the oceans and rethink our habits together.

Over three days, a series of talks, conferences, and podcasts will address key topics: circularity, microplastics, AI, regulation, inclusion, eco-design, and more. Featured speakers include: Rosalie Mann, author of No More Plastic, Dana Zhaxylykova, researcher and activist focused on microfibers; Céline Dassonville (Fédération de la Mode Circulaire), Clear Fashion, the Institut Français du Textile et de l’Habillement, EVEA, Arielle Levy, and Hugo Salama, who will record a live episode of his podcast La Seconde Vintage.

Impact and Neonyt Paris welcome strong and influential voices from diverse backgrounds but united by a shared mission: to bring forward real solutions, share experiences, and grow a community of committed actors. This is where the voices that influence, inspire, and transform the fashion of tomorrow come together.
