Sorry for the late post... Friday (pre-Lucca and Pisa) we went to see Elio Fiorucci give a presentation about his line at the Student Art Centers International- Firenze. Fiorucci is known as the designer who made denim fashionable, or the guy who designed my first "designer" item (discounting Baby Dior. Look what you started, Mom)... a jelly tote in elementary school from my wonderful Uncle. The school was hosting a show of his early advertising campaigns so a few of us from my program wandered into Florence for the talk.
A few of my favorite quotes from Mr. Fiorucci
- "Just three young kids with the intuition to create a revolutionary piece of clothing"
- "Art, Music, Culture, and Fashion overlap"- A man after my own heart
- "In order to be modern, we must have a strong consciousness of our roots"
all notes safely kept in my Fashionary notebook (aka one of the best boyfriend-ly surprises ever...)
