Innovative processes and materials, social responsibility and care, attention to the environmental impact of production are only some of the aspects of sustainability in the fashion industry. They are also at the basis of the approach adopted by the designers who participate in the second edition of the project “[R3]Circle - Reuse Recycle Regenerate”, promoted by Altaroma in collaboration with Maker Faire Rome.
During a virtual event that will take place from 10 to 13 December, it will be possible to get to know thirteen designers who were launched by Altaroma. Participants will get to know new talents of Italian fashion, their creations and their collections through videos, look books, brand profiles, live and on-demand interviews.
Adelaide C., Bav Tailor, Blue of a Kind, Kind, Maria Sapio, Repainted, Cru Le, Ferilli Eyewear, Fili Pari, Giulia Boccafogli, Italo Marsiglia, Yekaterina Ivankova and Francesca Marchisio will present themselves and their ideas on how to promote a circular economy in the fashion industry. This new system and approach to production is demonstrating that reducing waste, reusing, regenerating, and optimizing materials and production processes can truly create business opportunities and support collaboration between the small and medium enterprises of this complex production chain.
This difficult period has taught us that the future of fashion increasingly lies in the circular economy. Embracing sustainability requires an in-depth knowledge of production phases – often rooted in local communities – and of how they can contribute to the full implementation of change.
