The collaboration between NABA, Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti, and DANI, has developed through two workshops involving the Fashion Design and Product Design courses in the creation of artefacts using Zero Waste Dani leather and leather scraps from the Dani manufacture.
The projects have been exhibited during the Lineapelle trade show in Milano at the UNIC Showroom in Via Brisa, 3 in Milano.
Francesca Ponti and Elena Serafini, students of the Bachelor of Arts in Fashion Design at NABA, have focused their research on the overlapping of materials, creating shapes with empty and full volumes
The NABA project developed in collaboration with OLDER Studio involved BA Fashion Design students in transforming and reinterpreting work uniforms from the brand’s Italo-Danish permanent collection through upcycling and customisation practices.
“Future Makers” is a multidisciplinary project in which NABA students, working with Archivio Mantero, transformed the foulard into a narrative device: through archival research, materials and hybrid languages, they created works that link manufacturing memory with future visions.
On September 22, NABA and Repower presented “Tinto di Blu. Agrivoltaico ed erbe tintorie, in viaggio tra energia, moda e innovazione”, a symposium highlighting a project developed with students that explored the use of agrivoltaics to cultivate dye plants and their potential applications in fashion and textiles.
