#10: Fit Technology Strategist, Jessica Couch of Luxor and Finch, on Representation, Sustainability, & SXSW Applications

Jessica Couch is the founder of the consulting agency Luxor & Finch, where she works with brands, advising them on strategic, data-driven planning. She has worked with numerous companies in the fit technology space and has published over 60 articles on the matter of fit and fit tech, a thesis on fit and perception, and values corporate responsibility as a whole, emphasizing inclusion, sustainability, and improved practices around fit. She is also the co-creator (along with previous guest Brittany Hicks) of the WOC #FashTech Brunch (links below).

Her knowledge runs deep, her Bachelor’s degree is from NC State University’ College of Textile, and her Master’s is in Digital Innovation and Fit from Cornell University (a curriculum she developed under the guidance of Professor Susan P. Ashdown).

She shares some great perspectives around how brands could and should be held accountable to enforced sustainability standards and has a wealth of knowledge surrounding the industry.
