    Weapons

    Watching this beautiful video made by Elia Acunto and Alessia Caliendo for Vein Magazine I can only smile because it reminds me the good times shared with them during the last #MilanFashionWeek, but at the same time I think: “Phones that don’t call and glasses that don’t shelter from the sun.” These are the true weapons of seduction of the fashion week. Fool who believes that they are needed to seduce a man. The real focus is the camera and its owner, the one who is convinced to capture your image, but actually is unaware (maybe ?) that you have…

    #PFW – UNDERCOVER Spring Summer 2015

      While the streets of Paris burn under an unusual late-September sun, the old refectory of the Couvent des Cordeliers becomes a dark enchanted forest with giant cherries apparently fallen from the pillars of the hall. It is not a dream, nor a paradoxical scenario of the Gulliver’s Travels, but only the set of the UNDERCOVER spring summer 2015 fashion show. Just looking at these elements is clear to everyone that once again Jun Takahashi will amaze the audience with one of his eclectic collections, full of symbols and artistic references.

    Milano Fashion Week Spring Summer 2015 – Day 1

    First day of Milan fashion week (at least for me) and while on social media such authoritative newspaper as LaRepubblica shares videos against the phenomenon of fashion blogging with such a lack of professionalism, the seasonal trends dance is going on the runway and in the showrooms, and it doesn’t matter if a designer has re-used the same elements, themes or inspirations of another brand. In fashion seems there are no rules!

    (Alta)Roma is unique!

    “Why are you going to AltaRoma?! Rome is dead!” This is what I was told each time I announced my arrival in Rome for the couture week (alta moda). I confess that at first I had some doubts in doing so. The cost of trains, taxi and accommodation were such a deterrent to me because I can’t boast the title of “specialist correspondent” for a famous magazine (with expensive benefits and refunds), but the passion for what I think will be my future work field, the curiosity for the celebrations of the 10th anniversary of Who is On Next? contest…

    Graduate Fashion Week 2014 – Crispy chips are in fashion this year!

    From May 31st (to June 3rd) London is going to stage the Graduate Fashion Week, the world’s leading event for fashion students, showcasing the work of over 1,000 graduates from the most influential UK and international universities. As usual you can see on the catwalk a lot of inspirations, provocations, novelties, but in some cases you can also have a lot of doubts about the prestige of those fashion institutes. A part from the same common teaching methods that invite students to copy “reinterpret” the great Japanese masters and the Antwerp Six, it seems that this year the pop imagery of…
