Prieš daugiau nei dešimtmetį Marija Palaikytė Lietuvą sudomino itin netradicine savo profesija – baigusi studijas Florencijos mados institute „Polimoda“, ji prisistatė kaip mados tendencijų prognozuotoja. Po to sekė gausybė kitų įdomių projektų: nuo vyrų mados savaitės, organizuotos Vilniuje, iki televizijos stilistės darbo. Šiuo metu Marija veda realybės šou „Mados klubas“ ir į lietuviškos mados istoriją įneša naujų vėjų.Ved. Deimantė Bulbenkaitė

Sara Paci Piccolo"La morte e la moda"Il volto oscuro della bellezza nell'arte e nell'abbigliamento, dall'Eden ai nostri giorni.Ancora Editricewww.ancoralibri.itUn intreccio “fatale” quello tra Moda e Morte, di cui l'autrice ci sprona a cercare le radici e le influenze nella nostra vita contemporanea. Fino a un passato non troppo lontano i soggetti macabri – nell'arte, nel discorso religioso e nella realtà quotidiana – erano esperienza comune, dando profondità e sostanza alla vita di ogni giorno con il loro memento mori. Dalle Danze macabre medievali alle moderne raffigurazioni horror nei film, nei comics, negli anime e nella moda, l'autrice ricostruisce l'evolvere della concezione della morte nel suo legame profondo con il corpo, in tensione dinamica tra sostanza e apparenza. In questo processo anche il look ha giocato un ruolo fondamentale, seguendo una riflessione presente già nella Bibbia e nei Padri della Chiesa, dove l'abito è simbolo di ambiguità e illusione, ma anche specchio verace della nostra natura mortale.Un'opera unica, che da una prospettiva multidisciplinare racconta la Grande Livellatrice con gli occhi dell'arte, della riflessione teologico-filosofica e della moda, vero specchio della società.«Più la società è ipocrita e perbenista, maggiormente la morte sarà lì, per strada, nei mercati, nei media, sotto tante forme, anche quelle frivole del look, per riportarci al vero significato della nostra esistenza».Sara Paci Piccolo è docente per numerose istituzioni di istruzione superiore – come il Polimoda di Firenze e il Fashion Institute of Technology di New York, tra le altre – in tematiche che si incentrano soprattutto sul rapporto tra corpo, moda e società, con un approccio multidisciplinare che ne indaga le relazioni in culture e tempi diversi.Oltre ad essere consulente (Public Historian) per molte associazioni storico-artistiche in occasione di eventi come palii e manifestazioni cittadine ad ambientazione storica – in particolare nel campo dell'abbigliamento storico in tutte le sue espressioni, dal contesto storico-artistico-sociale alle problematiche della costruzione sartoriale – è autrice di saggi e libri sui temi dell'arte, dell'iconografia, dell'abbigliamento e delle vesti liturgiche.https://www.sarapacipiccolo.comIL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.it Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

AN/ARCHIVE is an innovative space for fashion research presented by Polimoda that hosts exhibitions, workshops, conferences and debates on some of the most relevant issues for today's fashion industry, stimulating reflection on the future of the sector and helping a new generation of researchers to emerge.

In occasion of Pitti Uomo 107, Polimoda presents AN/ARCHIVE EVENT TWO: blue r/evolution, an unprecedented exhibition that transcends traditional fashion discourse and explores the evolution of blue, denim and its connection to work, identity, crisis, and revolution. 

The Polimoda Library presents a curated selection of books, publications, and research materials to explore the key themes of the exhibition: blue, denim, workwear, subcultures, textile art, and photography. This collection, designed to spark curiosity and deeper understanding, offers visitors the chance to uncover unexpected connections between aesthetics, history, and innovation. The selected texts are available for on-site consultation, providing a valuable resource for enthusiasts, students, and creatives seeking inspiration.

Italian fashion designer Francesco Risso is renowned for his offbeat, innovative approach to contemporary clothing. He learned how to cut and sew from the age of eight with any fabric he could find, going on to study fashion at Florence's Polimoda, New York's FIT, and London's Central Saint Martins. As creative director at Marni since 2016, Risso gained prominence by infusing the brand with vibrant colors, eclectic patterns, and playful aesthetics. His charming exuberance and unique ability to blend craft with modernity sets him apart and captivates audiences worldwide. What he sees as contemporary now is simple and uncontrolled by trends and a fast-paced industry: food and sex. Episode Highlights: Risso's early years were spent not talking in a hectic and blended family home in Genoa, where he communicated by making things with his hands. At 8 or 9 years old, he began making clothes, scavenging clothes from his grandmother's closet to cut and sew. Studying the classics and art, Risso “escaped” from his loud family by moving to Florence, knowing he would make clothes.  He found in the dance, clubbing, and rave scenes a way to escape from the constrictive traditional forces in Italy at the time when he considered himself goth and an outsider. “Provocative, and visceral, and obsessive.”: Risso talks about how he accepts a darker side of his outlook as a complement to his lighter and romantic side. He notes one of his mentors, Louise Wilson at Central Saint Martins, taught him to base a world around a garment without using typical fashion references.  Risso read a Virginia Woolf piece in which she invites her friends to the countryside and tells them not to bring clothes, as to leave behind a kind of social structure, and this inspired him to lose reference points.  On the secret of merging creative freedom with commercial success, Risso champions trust, pleasure, and courage,and living in the moment rather than for the final product. Marni Jam is one example of interdisciplinary creativity that Risso works into the brand, expanding music into fashion. To Risso, what's contemporary now is “sex and food”—two exchanges he finds beautiful in that they build community. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Episode spécial Pitti Uomo - ONU : L'industrie de la Mode devient plus inclusive mais s'intéresse rarement à la question des migrations. Focus sur une initiative hors du commun associant l'agence de l'ONU pour les migrations dans les Balkans et Polimoda pour créer le nouveau label No Nation Fashion. Bienvenue dans 2GoodMedia, le média podcast qui couvre les grands événements des industries créatives en France et en Italie. Aujourd'hui, je vous emmène à Florence, au Pitti Uomo, le premier salon au monde pour les professionnels de l'industrie de la mode masculine. Je suis une habituée du Pitti ou je fais toujours de belles rencontres, mais je ne m'attendais pas cette année à rencontrer ici l'Agence de l'ONU pour les migrations et de parler d'inclusion et de diversité en plus de mode. Cette année, le Pitti accueille un projet de l'Agence de l'ONU pour les migrations, OIM, réalisé en collaboration avec Polimoda, l'une des plus prestigieuses école de mode au monde. La marque No nation fashion y présente une collection collaborative produite dans les camps de Bosnie avec les talents des migrants qui y séjournent. La question que se posait l'agence de l'ONU était comment réussir à connecter la question des migrants avec le monde du business? Comment créer aussi de nouveaux narratifs et par conséquent parler de ce volet social des migrations autrement? En montrant des initiatives porteuses de valeurs et de sens. C'est ce qu'a rendu possible cette année le Pitti en associant police, mode, école non-profit, l'agence de l'ONU pour les migrations et la marque No Nation Fashion.

Iværksætter Frederikke Antonie Schmidt fortæller i denne POVcast om sin personlige vej fra idé til det, der i dag er et kendt skobrand, Roccamore. Hun fortæller desuden om sine mange roller - senest som forfatter til bogen "Rebel", der meget mere end en biografi. Lyt med når Frederikke Antonie Schmidts vejleder om, hvordan man starter et skobrand. Som stifter af det anerkendte Roccamore og forfatter til Rebel, kombinerer Schmidt sine roller som CEO, cirkusprinsesse, opfinder, kreativ direktør, hustler, debattør og feminist.  Hold godt fast. Udsendelsen er lavet på zevio.com i samarbejde med Gyldendal i anledning af Schmidts bog "Rebel", der er mere end en biografi; det er en guide til at bryde med konventioner og samfundsnormer i forretningsverdenen. Hun deler personlige oplevelser og udfordringer fra sin karriere som kvinde og iværksætter, og hvordan disse har formet hendes unikke tilgang til forretning og design. Frederikkes, er en historie om at insistere på sin egen vej, om at være tro mod sig selv, og om at skabe et brand, der afspejler dette oprørske ethos. Schmidt, kendt for sin præference for lyserødt og sin evne til at "larme", blander en rebelsk ånd med seriøs forretningsførelse, og gør Roccamore til mere end bare et skomærke - det er et symbol på empowerment og individualisme. --- Frederikke Antonie Schmidt, født 1983, er iværksætter, stifter og kreativ direktør for virksomheden Roccamore. Hun er uddannet skodesigner fra designskolen Polimoda i Firenze, hvor hun bosatte sig og arbejdede i flere år, indtil hun vendte hjem til Danmark og startede Roccamore. Hun er særligt kendt for sine kreative marketingskampagner og bliver ofte inviteret som foredragsholder og kommentator i medierne. Hun mener, at man kan hvad man vil og hendes mission er at inspirere kvinder til at stå stærkt og tage deres plads i verden.

Danilo Venturi carved his way to fashion, from music. Known for his transformational vision in education at Polimoda, as the director, Danilo also has a storied past of working in music, at La Perla and now also at Instituto Europe De Design. Danilo's ten year background in fashion was a sequence of transitions between music, retail, studying political science and literature before he finally orchestrated multi disciplinary courses of fashion management. Danilo tailored fashion education from the universe of music to crystallize his results in the realm of fashion management and business for his course at Polimoda. Today, being at the powerful chair of Italy's educational infrastructure at Polimoda, in the city of renaissance, Florence, Danilo commemorates his lifelong love for luxury as an eternal student of knowledge and as the author of books including 'Brand Persona' and 'Momenting the Memento'.Ashley meets Danilo for a reminiscing conversation about the imploring educational ground of luxury, the new frontier of exclusivity and fashion being at the cusp of sustainability by imparting a panoramic view of the colliding worlds of fashion, education and technology.This podcast is sponsored by Seabody, a Kerry-based tech-powered Beauty & Wellness brand.

Surrounded by some of the most iconic and glistening contemporary sculptures of all time, a group of students interviewed American artist Jeff Koons. Palazzo Strozzi chose Polimoda as educational partner of the exhibition, and the two institutions have joined forces to reach an international community of young people who are passionate about fashion, art and creativity. Sitting in front of Balloon Venus Lespugue (Red), Jeff Koons' reflection bounced off the glossy red surface as he freeheartedly answered the curious questions Polimoda students Alisa Rebecca Watson (Master in Fashion Brand Management), Rano Karimova (Undergraduate in Business of Fashion), Autumn Caroline Mowery (Master in Fashion Brand Management), Ario Mezzolani (Master in Fashion Critique and Curation), Ana Maria Barth Teixeira (Master in Fashion Trend Forecasting) and Julian Restrepo Espinal (Master in Fashion Trend Forecasting) asked about his remarkable career.

In this episode, listen in on a conversation with my friend, Emily Jackson, whom I met while studying at Polimoda & FIT. We discuss what it was like to graduate with our AAS in fashion design from FIT during the pandemic and how that led to both of us starting our sustainable clothing lines. We also talk about sustainability as a whole and the complexity of the matter within fashion as well as life in general.FOLLOW EMILYIGFOLLOW EMILY HIROE (brand)IGWebsiteFOLLOW UNFILTERED FASHION TALKS:IGYouTubeTikTokFOLLOW NATALIA:YouTubeIGTikTokFOLLOW NTA (brand):IGTikTokShopSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Vi invitiamo come al solito ad iscrivervi e condividere questo podcast sui vostri profili social, ci fareste davvero un grosso favore.Iniziamo oggi con gli aggiornamenti su una storia che aveva catturato l'attenzione dei fiorentini nella giornata di ieri, la morte di uno studente del Polimoda dopo esser precipitato dal quarto piano di un palazzo in pieno centro. Come riporta La Nazione, si tratta di Federico Schiraldi, 21enne di Monza, a Firenze per realizzare il suo sogno, lavorare nel mondo della moda. Nessuna certezza, per quella dovremo aspettare i risultati dell'autopsia, ma il sospetto è che a causare la morte del giovane studente sia stato un gioco alcoolico, una gara di shottini. Non è certo la prima volta che l'alcool causa la morte di studenti presenti nella capitale toscana. Stamattina sulla Nazione abbiamo trovato un articolo con alcuni degli incidenti successi in passato. Una lettura che riempie di tristezza, serate allegre che si trasformano in tragedia in un attimo. C'è lo studente che si butta per scherzo nell'Arno, il soldato USA che in preda ai fumi dell'alcool prova a saltare da un tetto all'altro, lo studente danese in gita che si butta dal ponte Vespucci dopo una serata in discoteca. Tragedie insensate, che risultano ancora più incomprensibili in un'epoca come la nostra, dove ogni morte sembra sempre più inaccettabile.Passiamo ad una notizia dal mondo dell'economia che abbiamo letto ieri sera sulla Repubblica, una volta tanto non all'insegna del più nero pessimismo. Secondo diversi operatori del settore degli affitti turistici, le prenotazioni per i mesi estivi nella nostra regione sarebbero aumentate del 50% rispetto al terribile 2020. Alessandra Signori, referente toscana di Property Managers Italia, sembra ottimista; “secondo AirBnB risultano molte prenotazioni per giugno, luglio e agosto. Si tratta di grandi gruppi di persone, per il 50% italiani, il resto europei che finalmente tornano a viaggiare, ottimismo derivato anche dal successo della campagna vaccinale in Inghilterra. A Firenze negli ultimi 30 giorni il 41% sono italiani, 9,9% tedeschi, 7,2% inglesi e 5,8% francesi. Sulla costa invece il 49,5% per il periodo luglio/settembre sono tedeschi”. Cambia la modalità di consumo: se prima il turista prenotava un appartamento a Firenze per poi visitare il territorio, ora si preferisce una casa in campagna o sulla costa, lontano dal caos. Sia quel che sia, basta che si torni a viaggiare e fornire una boccata d'ossigeno all'industria del turismo prima che sia troppo tardi.Ci spostiamo ora a Prato, dove ieri sera abbiamo letto un articolo sull'edizione locale del Tirreno che ci ha fatto riflettere. Secondo il rapporto dell'anagrafe comunale, nel 2020 i matrimoni celebrati in città si sono quasi dimezzati, passando dai 384 del 2019 ai 230 dell'anno appena finito, una tendenza però non limitata alla pandemia, ma che continua dal 2016, quando furono 426 le coppie a giurarsi fedeltà eterna. Sempre più si preferisce il rito civile a quello religioso e risulta più alta l'età dei coniugi. Se nel 2020 l'età media dello sposo è 43,23 anni e 39,27 per la sposa, trent'anni fa l'età media era rispettivamente di 29,32 e 26,57. Dati niente affatto sorprendenti, visto che queste tendenze sono ben presenti nella società italiana da decenni. A far sollevare un sopracciglio, invece, i dati su separazioni e divorzi. Mentre molti temevano che essere costretti a vivere 24 ore al giorno col proprio coniuge avrebbe generato un boom di divorzi, i dati sono incredibilmente in calo. 77 separazioni contro le 79 del 2019 e 92 divorzi contro i 109 dell'anno precedente. Vedremo se i dati degli altri comuni confermeranno o meno queste tendenze. Se le cose stessero così, molti esperti sarebbero costretti a precipitosi dietro front.Continuiamo con una piccola storia curiosa che abbiamo letto su Pisa Today, quella di un ragazzo di 25 anni che si è presentato alla Questura in evidente stato di agitazione chiedendo di essere arrestato. Invece di denunciare qualche crimine, il venticinquenne ha chiesto ai poliziotti di porre fine alle proprie sofferenze, visto che stava vivendo una situazione disperata. Dopo aver perso il posto di lavoro, la fidanzata l'aveva lasciato, un uno-due purtroppo comune di questi tempi, che lo ha lasciato davvero a terra. Gli agenti, imbarazzati, hanno provato a tranquillizzarlo, senza ovviamente arrestarlo. Fa riflettere il fatto che la vita sia diventata per molti così difficile da far sembrare preferibile un soggiorno in prigione. Viviamo davvero tempi strani…Chiudiamo la puntata di oggi con una notizia che, purtroppo, non sorprenderà nessun appassionato di calcio, l'annuncio della cancellazione della Viareggio Cup, la storica Coppa Carnevale, appuntamento di rilievo mondiale nelle competizioni di calcio giovanile. L'annuncio del Centro Giovani Calciatori di Viareggio nella serata di ieri. L'associazione, che dal 1949 organizza il torneo viareggino, ha confermato che la competizione, considerata da molti un vero e proprio mondiale per club giovanili, non si disputerà dal 15 al 29 marzo come previsto dal calendario, visto il perdurare della pandemia. Possibile un rinvio a giugno o a settembre 2021.Questo era tutto per oggi, sono Luca Bocci, ci sentiamo domani per una nuova puntata di What's Up Tuscany, il podcast quotidiano dell'Arno dove troverete le notizie che, per noi, valgono bene una seconda occhiata. Ciao ciao gente!

FBU Club nr 44.Coltivare la Storia per guardare al Futuro, con Marco MontemaggiTante imprese di famiglia hanno una storia alle spalle che merita di essere raccontata. Non solo per tenere traccia e custodire il passato ma anche per dare solidità e radici al futuro. Per questo non si tratta solo di tenere un archivio di vecchie carte o mettere ordine ad un deposito di prodotti storici. La vera sfida è riuscire a tracciare quel filo rosso che costruisce la cultura e i valori che hanno guidato l'impresa e che danno la prospettiva su cui fondare qualunque processo di sviluppo dell'impresa e del suo territorio.Marco Montemaggi è senza dubbio uno dei più grandi esperti di musei d'impresa in Italia, lavora e ha lavorato per molte aziende del Made in Italy su progetti di Corporate Identity fra cui Diesel spa, Misano World Circuit, Borsalino, Riva Yacht, Ducati Motor, inoltre è stato curatore scientifico di progetti di Marketing territoriale come “Motor Valley”. Recentemente e vicino a noi, sta curando il museo aziendale di Zordan 1965.Docente al Cuoa di Vicenza e al Polimoda di Firenze ha scritto e curato (da solo ed insieme ad altri) numerosi saggi e libri sulla Cultura Industriale italiana fra cui “Heritage Marketing. La storia dell'impresa come vantaggio competitivo” (Franco Angeli editore) nel 2007 e "Company Lands" (Edifir editore) nel 2020.Il sito di Marco Montemaggihttp://www.marcomontemaggi.com/Il suo profilo su LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/marco-montemaggi-08659022/E i suoi librihttp://www.marcomontemaggi.com/pubblicazioni/

Since his junior year in high school, Chris Donovan has been sketching women’s shoes. It’s been his quiet obsession for the past 30+ years. At the age of 50, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer. And he knew it was time to leave his safe job at the phone company to pursue his lifelong dream. “I need to follow this. I need to find out why I have this passion for shoes.” Based on the recommendation of European shoe designer Aki Choklat, he was accepted to Polimoda, one of the best fashion design institutes in the world. He enrolled in an accelerated masters program and packed his bags for Florence, Italy. And while his first few months were difficult, he ended up graduating at the top of his class. Since our initial interview with Chris in October 2018, he has figured out how to turn his amazing designs into an actual product. Take it from Tim Gunn of Project Runway: "It’s like nothing you’ve ever seen before." For more examples of Chris' amazing designs, visit www.ChrisDonovanFootwear.com.

(ep 3) How Can I Transform My Life by Experiencing Other Cultures? With Asanyah Davidson- Part 2In this episode of Collective Drift we sat down with Asanyah Davidson, child of the world, Fashion Designer, and educator. Asanyah is Jamaican born, American raised, and has lived in West Africa. She is the founding director at the Miami Fashion Institute at Miami Dade College, she has her own fashion line Circa24. We had a really fun conversation on a wide range of topics from being Jamaican, being vegan, living in West Africa, the influence of her European fashion teacher, mentoring and more.During part two of our interview with Asanyah Davidson the conversation goes a little deeper. Asanyah talks about how having a diverse group of mentors helped her development. Then she discusses the people; cultures; schools such as Design and Architecture Senior High (DASH) in Miami , the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) in NYC, and studying at Polimoda in Florence, Italy; and living in different countries influenced her as a fashion designer. Asanyah goes in depth about her time in Nigeria and Ghana. Her time there gave her a greater appreciation and understanding of textiles and the work behind them. This period in her life greatly influenced her career as a fashion designer. She will teach us about shibori, Adire, Ashoke, and Kente textiles. Asanyah learned about the significance of these fabrics and in this conversation you will learn the difference between what is and what isn’t real African fabric. Through this we delve into her viewpoint on cultural appropriation. How people think Ankara fabric is African fabric but it actually Dutch. Asanyah wants you to know what you are actually wearing so that you can truly appreciate it rather than appropriate it. All of these topics reflect how the importance of leaving your home country to understand the world better. If you disagree with Asanyah she says you can feel free to contact her. Asanyah talks about the similarities she noticed of African women and Jamaican women. She reminisces about the forever young spirit of African people, about partying with people of all ages and drinking champagne on the dance floor. We talk about her travels to South Africa and the importance of living in the moment. This was an important lesson from her travel. We then of course talk about Asanyah’s two favorite city’s Accra, Ghana and Siem Riep, Cambodia. She adores both of the cities because of how easy it is to get around. She tells us about a great Mexican restaurant in Siem Riep, yes, you heard me right - a Mexican restaurant. Getting a traditional bamboo tattoo while in Cambodia. And she talks about nightlife in Accra, which lead us to talking about how she went to the Guinness Beer factory in Ireland and beer culture around the world. Of course we circle back to Asanyah’s favorite places in Miami, Broward County AKA Greater Fort Lauderdale, and even West Florida. We finalize the conversation with Asanyah’s question for all women - “How are you dealing with life?” and her powerful definition of what a woman is.Collective Drift: Instagram: @CollectiveDrift Facebook.com/CollectiveDrift Find this episode on the CollectiveDrift.com/podcast-blog to get the links to all of Asanyah's favorite places.I'm Erica Vernet Knowles, a Miami native, an international traveler, and a culture enthusiast.

When I first heard Chris Donovan’s story I thought to myself, I don’t care what it takes. I have to interview this man. It took several months and a dozen or so email exchanges. But last month, I traveled to Massachusetts with only one thing in mind: interview the telephone repairman who is now focused solely on the one thing he always wanted to do in life: design women’s shoes. Since his junior year in high school, Chris Donovan has been sketching women's shoes. It's been his quiet obsession for the 30+ years. But at the age of 50, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer. And he knew it was time to leave his safe job at the phone company to pursue his lifelong dream. "I need to follow this. I need to find out why I have this passion for shoes." Based on the recommendation of European shoe designer Aki Choklat, he was accepted to Polimoda, one of the best fashion design institutes in the world. He enrolled in an accelerated masters program and packed his bags for Florence, Italy. And while his first few months were difficult, he ended up graduating at the top of his class. In January, 2019, he will launch a new line of shoes at Chris Donovan Footwear. Take it from Tim Gunn of Project Runway: it's like nothing you've ever seen before.

With a Masters from Polimoda, one of the top 10 fashion institutes in the world, Trend Forecaster Emily Miller Palmquist discusses the evolution of fashion as status and how what we wear holds more meaning than taste.
