Join Mil Stricevic, the creative mind behind Irregular Sleep Pattern, as he discusses the brand’s unique approach to sustainable fashion. Launched in 2020 with his wife Jolene, Irregular Sleep Pattern is an independent brand of bedding, sleepwear and associated products based in Glasgow.
In this talk, Mil will share insights into how the brand’s design process challenges the fast-fashion industry, drawing inspiration from his admiration of Japanese craftsmanship and traditional workwear,. Emphasising quality, longevity, and the refusal to churn out new lines simply for the sake of it, Irregular Sleep Pattern stands firm in its commitment to sustainability. Mil will discuss how the brand’s philosophy of producing only when necessary allows for a more thoughtful approach to both design and environmental impact.
Mil Stricevic played bass in bands for ten years before studying product design at Glasgow School of Art / the Royal College of Art in London. He has worked for corporate clients in the world of fashion, food & drink and retail as well as non-profit organisations, cultural institutions and government agencies. His work has been worn on the feet of Italian footballers, drunk in bars, featured as a question on BBC's University Challenge and spent time in prison... what ties them together is a common approach, which perhaps is best described as milish. Alongside his design practice, Mil holds a lecturing post in the department of Product Design at Glasgow School of Art
