How can our wardrobes tell stories about who we are—and shape the future of fashion?
In this episode of iNNOVATION Insights, host Dr. Eulanda Sanders sits down with Colin Behr, founder of The Wardrobe Theory Project and former Nike footwear and color designer, to explore how systems thinking, storytelling, and sustainability intersect in personal style. Colin shares his journey from small-town Iowa to internships at New Balance and Todd Snyder, a decade-long career at Nike and Jordan Brand, and the leap into entrepreneurship with a self-published fashion archive magazine.
His work blends design thinking with psychology, sustainability, and personal branding—celebrating the clothes people already own rather than pushing the next purchase.

◾How systems thinking applies to fashion and personal style
◾The process behind curating and photographing a “Top 50” wardrobe
