The Art of Embroidery: Mister Grasso

This morning we had the great pleasure to meet Pino Grasso and his daughter Raffaella. Mister Grasso is know as the master of embroidery here in Italy; he works with important designers as Armani, Versace, Valentino, Tom Ford, Bottega Veneta, Marni ecc... realizing unbelievable handmade embroideries.
His career started 55 years ago and he is still the number one in Italy. Mister Grasso told us that the most important thing to work in this field is the knowledge of materials and your creativity, mixing this two things the result will be excellent.
They realize embroidery not just for clothes, but also for shoes, bags and accessories using many different types if materials according to the customer's need.
We also visited the archive of Mister Grasso touching and seeing many samples of embroideries used for famous (amazing) clothes!
We feel so lucky ;-)

The World of Fabrics

This morning all our students took part in a common lesson about the importance of fabrics in fashion.

During this lesson we discovered how to recognize and identify different types of fabrics, touching and seeing many samples.

Usually students are divided into Fashion Design and Fashion Styling classes, but fabrics are important for both and they appreciated this group lesson during that they could interact with each other and exchange points of view.
