Brief
description of the initiative:
“Fashion today: weaving traditions
entering the 200th anniversary of Napoleon's coronation as King of Italy.”
The rediscovering of the values of the period of Napoleon’s Empire in
Fashion and Costume are an important step to propose actual alternative to
present fashion.
All faculties participants are asked to present at the beginning of the week
a gown or a vest of the period of 1800-1814, as typical of their traditions,
as well as a brief presentation (15-20 min each) trough pictures, sketches,
power point presentation to explain the historical and local contest of the
costume presented.
At the end of all presentations will be made the international Team works
composed by 1 student from each Countries. The international team works will
be, now, more aware of the International contest, traditions, ways of
accepting an International codified fashion and could be effectively able to
produce a ideas for a new integrated fashion proposal based on weaving
traditions.
Each Faculty should participate with 5 students.
The International Team works will be working in the laboratories of the
State Art Institute of Porta Romana.
I remind you that the aim of the workshop is to build international
friendship through the mean of Fashion.
