  • Italian Fashion & Innovation
    Italian Fashion & Innovation Derek Pante Azmina Karimi Morgan Taylor Russell Taylor Introduction In Spring 2008, the Italia Design team researched the fashion industry in Italy, and discussed briefly how it fits into Italy’s overall innovation. The global public’s perception of Italy and Italian Design rests to some degree on the visibility and success of Fashion Design. The fashion and design industries account for a large percentage of Milan’s total economic output— as Milan goes economically, so goes Italy (Foot, 2001). Fashion Design clearly contributes to “brand Italia,” as well as to Italian culture generally. Yet, fashion is not our focus in this study: innovation and design is. Fashion’s goals are not the same as design. For one, fashion operates on “style,” design works on “language,” and style to a serious designer is usually the opposite of good design. Yet to ignore the area possibly creates a blind spot. With the resource this year of some students with great interest in this area it was decided that we should begin to investigate how fashion in Italy contributes to innovation, and how fashion in Milan and other centers in the North of Italy sustain “Creative Centers” where measurable agglomeration (a sign of innovation) occurs. Delving into Italian Fashion allowed us to rethink certain paradigms. For one, how we look at Florence as a design center. Florence has very little Industrial Design and, because of the city’s UNESCO World Heritage designation, has very little contemporary architectural culture. This reality became clear after four years of returning to the Renaissance city.

The focus begins in 1950, when the American and the Italian curated and financed exhibition Italy at Work. Her Renaissance in Design Today embarked on its three-year tour of US museums, showing objects and environments designed in Italy’s post-war reconstruction by leading architects including Carlo Mollino and Gio Ponti.

Astromobile, SSSA, 2012, Photo by Massimo Brega/The Lighthouse 2. Mascot, ENEA, 1987 Foreword by the ENEA Commissioner Introducing the result of this new initiative of the Agency, I cannot help recalling the early stage of the automation and robotics technology ENEA has contributed to build up in Italy. ENEA was the first research body in Italy and in Europe to develop in 1959, when it was called CNRN, what is perhaps the pioneer of modern robots: the Mascot teleoperator. Designed as a manipulator controlled by a human operator from a very remote control console, Mascot allowed to manage the very dangerous fissile materials, avoiding man’s exposition to nuclear radiation. The performance in sensitivity of operation reached by the Mascot family remains unsurpassed yet, after 60 years and after all the technological progress that the robotics community has been able to build up. I am therefore proud to present this volume, which demanded a detailed and long preparation; and it is not by chance that, in these days of competitiveness, ENEA is still in charge of analyzing the scenario of the Italian research centers’ network, that is working at the highest levels in the whole world.

  • Made in Italy 2.0
    MADE IN ITALY 2.0 Searching for the Characteristics of Contemporary Italian Fashion in the Context of Fashion Design Education in Italy Marina Holma Centre for Fashion Studies Master's Thesis 30 ECTS Master's Programme in Fashion Studies (120 ECTS) Spring term 2014 Supervisor: Louise Wallenberg Abstract “Made in Italy” is a phenomenon widely researched in economic, historical and cultural studies (including fashion studies). The research about this topic mostly refers to the fast economic development in post-WWII Italy, in which fashion played a major role. My thesis, however, analyzes the “Made in Italy” concept in contemporary Italian fashion, which I refer to as “Made in Italy 2.0.” In order to understand how Italian style can be characterized today, I conducted interviews in five design schools in Italy located in the different fashion cities of the country: IED and Politecnico (Milan), IUAV (Venice), Polimoda and IED (Florence). I then analyzed my collected data and compared it to the characteristics of the “Made in Italy” fashion of the second half of the twentieth century discussed by various scholars, thus discovering what are the truly contemporary features of Italian fashion. Keywords: contemporary Italian fashion, fashion design education in Italy, Made in Italy. 2 Table of Contents Chapter 1.

Despite the word ‘design’ in the title, craft materials and techniques dominated the two thousand five hundred exhibits (see figure 1.1) and the five room sets designed by architects including Carlo Mollino and Gio Ponti. Enjoying critical and popular acclaim, Italy at Work spent the next three years travelling to eleven other museums across North America, closing at the Museum of the Rhode Island School of Design in November 1953.2 In May 1951, just as Italy at Work was embarking on the second leg of its tour, the ninth Triennale di Milano esposizione internazionale delle arti decorative e industriali moderne e dell’architettura moderna (Milan Triennial International Exposition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts and Modern Architecture) (see plate 2) opened in Milan, with the theme L’unità delle arti (The Unity of the Arts). The Italian architect and artist organisers attempted to project a unified image of post-war modernity, but this was clouded by internal conflicts that reflected wider political turmoil. While industrial design was present, craft remained the main- stay of Italy’s exhibits, and both were given multiple roles by competing visions for the nation’s post-war future.
