International Fashion Designer Dr Lady Priyanka Mallick Addresses Sustainability and Climate Change Through Fashion, Art and Environmental Storytelling.
- (1888PressRelease) October 05, 2026 - International fashion designer Dr Lady Priyanka Mallick was invited to and joined the World Climate Summit: New York 2026 virtually on 24 September, participating in an international climate-focused gathering organised by the World Climate Foundation during the wider Climate Week NYC and UN General Assembly period. The 2026 Summit brought together representatives and leaders from business, finance, government, civil society and other sectors to discuss how proven climate and nature solutions can be scaled and how capital, markets and partnerships can support sustainable growth.
During her virtual participation, Dr Lady Priyanka Mallick delivered her perspective on sustainability and climate change, connecting environmental responsibility with the creative industries and the role that fashion, art and visual storytelling can play in encouraging greater awareness of the natural world.
“The Queen of Nature - Mother Earth”
As part of her creative contribution, Dr Lady Priyanka Mallick presented her artwork illustration:
“The Queen of Nature - Mother Earth”
The artwork portrays Mother Earth as the Queen of Nature, surrounded by the interconnected elements of the planet—forests, oceans, rivers, flowers, butterflies, birds, wildlife, children and the Earth itself.
At the centre of the composition, Mother Earth holds the planet in her hand, creating a visual representation of humanity's responsibility toward the world we inhabit.
The Sun represents light and life, while the oceans and flowing water symbolise the essential connection between water, ecosystems and survival. The trees, flowers and wildlife represent biodiversity, while the children symbolise future generations and the responsibility to leave them a healthier planet. Through this visual language, Dr Lady Priyanka Mallick seeks to communicate that climate awareness is not only a scientific or economic issue-it is also a human, cultural and creative responsibility.
Fashion as a Language for Sustainability
For Dr Lady Priyanka Mallick, fashion extends beyond garments and aesthetics. Her creative philosophy explores the relationship between fashion, sustainability, nature, technology, art and global cultural dialogue. Through sustainable fashion concepts and nature-inspired visual storytelling, she explores how designers can encourage audiences to think about consumption, environmental responsibility and humanity's relationship with the natural world. Her participation in the World Climate Summit represents another step in bringing these creative conversations into an international climate and sustainability environment.
