Terra Cielo, Next at the Bologna Fashion Festival

EARTH SKY

Wear the life cycle of Nature, a project included in the Bologna Fashion Festival 2024.

Friday 13 September 2024 at the Bologna headquarters of Next Fashion School, we will be presenting an exhibition of outfits and design studies themed around the Earth-Sky relationship.

Young fashion students representing the Next Generation will interact with visitors, explaining through images, inspirations and details of the making-of their interpretation, which has transformed from imaginary into reality.

Creativity has no defined limits and succeeds in connecting distant spaces, sometimes opposing ones.

A root sinks into the earth's shadow and draws nourishment from it; it is solid, reliable and generates growth that instead sees the light, sprouts into the sky and displays shapes and colours.

How many analogies with the roots of traditions, know-how, craftsmanship and experience that then blossom into luminous, exuberant projects full of personality.

Earth and Sky, one without the other, would be limited; together they complement each other and are a hymn to nature.

In this exhibition we wish to show the importance of having roots in the local area, of knowing its peculiarities, its unique qualities, its inestimable value and the desire to turn them into something to be worn with pride and glory.

Next Generation talent has created garments that aim to express, like a shoot, contemporary and avant-garde aesthetics, generated by tenacious and robust rhizomes that withstand time and act as its guardians.
