The famous fashion school has inaugurated the event dedicated to the best Italian schools, Fashion Graduate Italia 2021, with a catwalk full of curious and attentive guests.
A show that struck us more than the previous ones for its high level of creativity, experimentation and playfulness.In each collection, students expressed all their concerns, experimented with new materials, recovered traditions and translated them into new shapes and silhouettes. On the runway, the students chose their rhythm, music, and lighting, some amplifying their embroidery and embellishment constructions, and others subverting their concept of woman. There were waves of tulle, then lace, satin, and thrilling transparencies. Some men were not afraid to show themselves as children, and some were tight in ties of natural hair. There were women in prairie girl looks with patchwork and Femme Fatales in deconstructed lingerie dresses.
Paul Majer’s “Under Construction” capsule collection is inspired by Brutalist architecture, British heritage and construction elements to communicate the changes that are taking place in the fashion industry. The emerging fashion designer plays with a mix and match of prints and patterns creating a patchwork effect.
Guiyin Yang with his collection “For You, You Can Be Anyone” communicates genderless culture: the union of masculine and feminine, the combination of delicacy and strength, conflict, tolerance and balance between these elements are the main issues addressed.
The emerging fashion designer plays with fabric manipulation and vibrant colours for enriching the smooth bases of the textiles.
The collection “Nowhere” by Filippo Cascinelli Staudacher aims to declare that men’s fashion must be reborn now, free from the concepts of toxic and weak masculinity. The young fashion designer wisely combines classic elements of Made in Italy tailoring with more contemporary elements.
The color palette is made up of soft, light and pastel shades. He plays with interesting elements such as giant structured flowers, oversized pockets and drawstrings. The garments are structured, but at the same time they convey a new idea of feminine masculinity and fluidity.
