THE EVENTS AT THIS EDITION:

THE WRAP DRESS IS PROTAGONIST
Touch!, neoZone and cloudnine host a tribute to the “wrap dress”: a garment with a multi-faceted identity, worn for housework, a daily outfit for women in farming families, a cool dress for summer holidays and more recently, a cult piece in the collections of many fashion designers. The exhibition is curated by Maria Luisa Frisa and Elda Danese, published by Marsilio as part of the series MODE-Pitti Discovery Foundation.

ECO À PORTER: TECHNICAL-STYLE RESEARCH MEETS ECOLOGY
Eco à Porter is a project that combines research into new materials with studies of new shapes and fashion styles. An exhibition organised by Ornella Bignami featuring knitwear collections in special yarns provided by the most important sophisticated Italian weaving mills in collaboration with some of the most cutting-edge fashion designers. To focus on the production of yarns that experiment unusual interaction between nature and technology: made from pure or recycled natural fibres, dyed using low environmental-impact dyestuffs and finishes, attentive to energy consumption and respect for the rights and artisan skills of local communities.
