Button, new year and other stuff.

Last year luxury brands grew. However the aim of this blog is to promote new talents, not famous brands.

Our work is to give more visibility to the new generation. Young designers have a different approach to creativity; they research a new aesthetic of beauty (or ugliness); skillful person able to discover new fabrics or capable to elaborate old materials in different and unusual way. Those are the reasons why we like to work with them.
 

However, young designers do not have the visibility and notoriety of famous brands. So, what is going to be their future?
