Florence, April 11 2024
Accademia Italiana has been collaborating for years with Fashion Revolution for a clean, safe, fair, transparent and responsible fashion industry. As their global movement claims, Accademia Italiana also believes in a fashion industry that preserves and restores the environment and values people with respect to growth and profit.
The participation of the Institute in the Fashion Revolution Week, which takes place every year in the week of 24 April, the anniversary of the collapse of the Rana Plaza building in Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh, in 2013, is confirmed for 2024. Since then, Fashion Revolution Week remembers those lost lives and asks that no one should die to sew a dress.
Accademia Italiana supports Fashion Revolution and proudly participates in the week dedicated to sustainable and safe fashion. This year it does so with two appointments in the offices of Florence and Rome.
In Florence Wednesday, April 23 will take place "Itinerage, an itinerary in the heritage of the Oltrarno among designers & makers". Starting from the headquarters of Palazzo Temple Leader in Piazza de' Pitti, 15 with a talk on fashion with Silvia Gambi of Solo Moda Sostenibile, Elena Ianeselli of Lottozero and Debora Florio of Remake, we will continue with a real itinerary in the artisan realities of Oltrarno: LAO - The Goldsmith Arts, FAF - Female Arts in Florence, the Platypus, the Conventino and Schola.
