Istituto Marangoni: The Best Menswear Warrior Show
by Adriano Batista
Istituto Marangoni students celebrate the 80th Anniversary of the school on the catwalk in Firenze. The Palazzo Corsini (Firenze) hosted a fashion show to present the menswear collections by 16 selected fashion designers from the 4 Istituto Marangoni Schools of Fashion in the world: this is the first of a series of events in the rich programme of initiatives and events that will take place throughout 2015 to celebrate an 80 year-long successful history in the training of outstanding Fashion and Design professionals.
The theme of the show was “Fashion Warrior”, an explicit invitation to fight for the future by means of creativity, which is not an innate asset, but rather a natural aptitude which needs to be constantly fed: this is what Istituto Marangoni has been doing since 1935, developing necessary skills for tomorrow’s professionals to turn talent into business.
Each student presented 6 outfits complete with accessories, for a total of 96 menswear designs which stood out in their originality and uniqueness and well represented ideas and creative thoughts of the designers, as a result of their different origins, passions, personal experience, and influences of the country where they have completed their training. The mixing and matching of textiles, colours, and patternshas resulted in exclusive, truly amazing collections. WangShiyi, who is currently training at the School of Fashion in Milano, has also been selected by the internal jury as “The Best 80th Menswarrior”.
This has been a unique opportunity for these young fashion designers to debut with their creations in a top level international context, as well as show the results of the passionate effort they have put into their work throughout their training to an audience of over 300 guests including journalists, industry professionals, and representatives from the fashion system.
“Istituto Marangoni is constantly committed to promoting new talents” said Roberto Riccio, Istituto Marangoni Group Managing Director, “We are proud to have offered visibility to our best fashion designers, true ambassadors of the Istituto Marangoni method and Made in Italy excellence products, here in the cradle of Italian culture, Firenze, helping them to personally experience the typical excitement and adrenaline around a fashion show.”
