Discover how “free lifetime repairs” might shift fashion consumption toward sustainability. This session presents a mixed-method study combining conjoint analysis, eye-tracking, and EEG to examine how consumers respond—both consciously and subconsciously—to repairability messaging. Learn how pricing strategies and emotionally engaging storytelling influence sustainable fashion choices. Ideal for marketers, researchers, and policymakers, this session reveals data-driven insights into bridging the attitude–behavior gap and designing circular economy interventions that resonate beyond moral appeals.
