Who Is On Next - Part 1, AltaRomAltaModa, Rome

Hello everyone,

Here it is ! The first event of AltaRomAltaModa for July 2012 !

 

As usual it took place in the majestuous surroundings of the Vatican,

in Santo Spirito in Sassia, within the religious historical heart of Rome.

 

Who Is On Next is organised in collaboration with Vogue Italia and Alcantara, presenting new talents for accessories - my part 1, the exhibition - and for fashion - my part 2, the catwalk shows.

 

The inner part of the church Santo Spirito in Sassia had been covered with

fake walls to protect the rich inside decorations, but the beautiful entrance was still left as such,

with just some screens and posters on the side announcing the fashion mass...

 

Conspiracy, label for shoes created by Gianluca Tamburini and Charline De Luca, was one of the main innovations of the exhibition for their original heel shapes made, it seems, of glass. The designers were later on announced as finalists of the event for the category accessories.

A range of other designers presented their creations on the exhibition, including shoes, bags, headscarves and agendas, demonstrating that fashion can still be innovative when coming to daily accessories:

My next report will be on Part 2 of Who Is On Next - the catwalk shows ! coming soon...
