23rd June 2011 a convention on eco-sustainable textiles was organised in Alzano Lombardo (Bergamo – Italy) for an in-depth study on the topic of concrete opportunities for renewal and economic development. A competition for young designers who have to create a small themed “women’s Summer collection” using environmental friendly and recycled fabrics. An open event, where fabrics and the garments produced are exhibited, and with themed entertainment.
Fashion FaSE Ecology’s objective is to create a new eco-sustainable event to achieve FaSE’s goals of long range awareness on the topic. Moreover, by the involvement of schools, the aim is to motivate and create an opportunity for young people, cultivating their creative sense together with a sustainable consciousness.
As in all of FaSE’s events, attention is also directed towards enterprises through training and information for businesses, to guide them in a practical course of renewal and development in mutual synergy. Instilling trust in tomorrow’s environment, economy, work, and family with concreteness and applicability.
