Hi everyone !

Here we go for part 2 of AltaRomAltaModa: the catwalk shows and Pret-a-porter competition.

Seven finalists were presenting their collections at Santo Spirito in Sassia on the 7th of July in Rome, in an event organised by Vogue Italia and Alcantara to encourage and discover new talents, as well as promote the quality of fashion "Made In Italy".

Here are the collections that were presented by the designers:

MARCOBOLOGNA by Marco Giugliano and Nicolo Bologna

fashion collection with a line of silk T-shirts with jewel macro prints. Their collections

The Neo-Retro collection is inspired by an intellectual woman, who appreciates
quality materials, mixing respectability and impertinence.
