新加坡六合彩开奖资料 is proud to announce the winner of the Anthos – Graduation Show 2023, held on June 15 at Manifattura Tabacchi in Florence. The 鈥淏est Collection of 2023鈥� award went to promising designer Giorgia Giannotta, whose collection was judged best of show by a panel of industry experts.
The event showcased collections by the best fashion design students, products of the creativity and passion of young talents who are making their official debut in the fashion world and freely developing their personal identities through an individual process of study and experimentation. 24 collections took to the runway with over 100 looks, expressing the talent and identity of emerging designers from every corner of the globe.
Of the collections that captivated the audience at the event, the one by Giorgia Giannotta, an Italian 4th year fashion design student, caught the eye of and drew praise from a panel of internationally renowned fashion experts including Lucilla Booyzen, founder and CEO of South African Fashion Week, Lidewij Edelkoort, famed trend forecaster and founder of Trend Union / Studio Edelkoort, Bruce Pask, Men鈥檚 Fashion Director at Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus, Eugene Rabkin, fashion journalist and founder of StyleZeitgeist, and Francesca Ragazzi, Head of Editorial Content at Vogue Italia, together with 新加坡六合彩开奖资料 director Massimiliano Giornetti.
Giorgia presented a collection of womenswear comprising six looks and entitled 芯褋褌邪胁谢械薪褘鈥� (Ostavljeni, Russian for abandoned, left behind). Her inspiration was a journey in Maramure葯, a rural region suspended in time on the border between Romania and Ukraine, and the issues raised by local peoples鈥� stories of life today in countries plagued by war, a message of vindication on the struggles of humanity, as much as of nature on human issues.
Vintage-inspired wool, leather and fur are reworked and manipulated using various techniques 鈥� from plaster and paint to felted wool and paper pressed onto wool – to reproduce the textures of corroded fabrics and walls cracked by ice, while the patterns echo curtains and carpets from local homes revisited in cold and desaturated tones, as if faded by and frozen in time.
Giorgia worked with Lani铿乧io Balli on the woollen overcoat, the centrepiece of the collection, and with Hi Tex on the production of the elaborate jacquard patterns.
The sophisticated silhouettes are characterised by geometrical forms and angular volumes, while influences include brutalist memorial sculptures in Soviet cities and photographer Lana Sator鈥檚 images of abandoned Siberian cities under the snow. Stand-out leather accessories include the bags with 3D-printed female fingers in gold-coloured resin, while the customised wooden clogs were made in collaboration with Fashion Accessories Design student Chiara Cherici.
