The panel discussion will explore the pressure to look a certain way and to be perfect among women designers and creative professionals who themselves create beauty products and imagery. How do they navigate society’s expectations? And what is the difference between creating beauty and feeling pressured to be “perfect” yourself?
The discussion will draw on recent data from Dove and the ideas behind its Krása je pocit (Beauty Is a Feeling) campaign, which has long highlighted the impact of unrealistic beauty ideals on women’s self-confidence. It will also examine the role designers play in shaping perceptions of female beauty and how they can help change them for the better.
