“Time magazine named her as one of the world’s 25 most influential people in Fashion in 2003, while she received the Netherlands’s Grand Seigneur prize one year later for her work in fashion and textiles. Aid to Artisans honoured Edelkoort with a Lifetime Achieve- ment Award in 2005 for her support of craſt and de- sign, and North meets South, a design exhibit curated by Edelkoort, toured Saint Etienne, Paris, Stockholm and New York. Last year, an international touring ex- hibit honouring Edelkoort’s forecasting as a landmark medium of social commentary, was launched.
“If you ask Li Edelkoort, there is a golden future await- ing all of the industries that can meet peoples’ need for well-being. In her new trend book Te Bible of Well- Being, she sees evidence that society is focusing more and more on discovering and encouraging a sense of comfort in every aspect of daily life. Industries such as fragrance and food, beauty and health, living and home furnishings will be inspired by upcoming ten- dencies that will lead them towards a wide palette of new product ideas. Consumers want to do something good for themselves and integrate more enjoyment and sensory pleasures into their everyday lives. Te ‘com- mandment’ in Edelkoort’s current Bible is ‘Enjoy!’
“Li Edelkoort is one of the most sought-aſter trend researchers on the planet. For 20 years she has been pointing companies towards what tomorrow’s con- sumers want, how they will live and what will be im- portant to them. When this then 55-year-old Dutch woman speaks, corporations listen – among others, Coca-Cola, Estée Lauder, L’Oréal, Shiseido, Dim, as well as car companies, banks and even governments consult with her at her offices in Paris and New York. In the world of fashion and design, she is considered an icon of style with a fail-proof sense of what tomor- row will bring. Time magazine named her one of the 25 most influential fashion experts of our time, and the famous British design magazine i-D listed her among the world’s 40 most important designers.”
