Presentation of the book "Giorgio Correggiari il ribelle della moda"
Tuesday, April 18, 11:30 a.m., Room B2.1.1. Campus Bovisa, Via Candiani, 72 - Milan
We invite you to attend the presentation of the book "Giorgio Correggiari il ribelle della moda".
The book, composed of essays, interviews and testimonies from friends, colleagues and former collaborators, describes the training and work of Giorgio Correggiari, fashion designer and great textile experimenter who operated from the 1960s onward within the Italian Fashion System. At times very much against the concept of fashion itself, he was a great experimenter with materials, an anticipator of manners and fashions, and above all a mentor and trainer of several young designers such as Domenico Dolce.
Missed prematurely, through a work of analysis and rereading of the great archive composed of articles, projects, photos, slides the authors, in a continuous dialogue with Lamberto, Giorgio's brother, reconstruct the figure of Giorgio Correggiari, of the context in which he worked but above all of the many projects he thought of and realized in more than fifty years of his career.
