Istituto Marangoni brought together their best talents from Milan,
Florence and London to this year’s Fashion Graduate Italia-an unique event
in Italy dedicated to the Fashion System, future designers and organized by
Piattaforma Sistema Formativo Moda.
At the ‘Sustainable Visions’ collective fashion show, students from 16
schools presented the results of their reflection on the complex theme of
environmental and social sustainability, an issue addressed with an
increasing commitment by major fashion brands. The main fashion show
brought to the catwalk a total of 99 looks that showcased innovative
visions of Istituto Marangoni’s international talents.
Representing the creativity of Istituto Marangoni, three students took
turns on the catwalk: Giulia Aliprandi presented the outfits of the
spring/summer 2020 collection of her brand Ekò, inspired in particular by
the theme of recycling of fabrics and unusual materials. Veronica Ferroli
Mazza presented the outfits of her Genever collection inspired by gin and
tonic. Mario Mele’s collection told the story of the evolution of the city
of Matera-where sustainable development is expressed in the pursuit of
social and environmental well-being with tailored garments made entirely of
wool tweed.
Pietro Fadda, Ottavia Molinari, Song Yutao, Tang Qiying, Francesca Irma
Maria Vinelli, Ivan Chistov, Zhenni Kuang, Xiaoyuan Tan, Maria Lucci, Sarah
