A sustainable fashion process, that of upcycling, will be activated: starting with an iconic garment, one we are fond of, through the choice of materials and hybridization of craft techniques. Colors, materials and stitches will be chosen and used to tell emotional states, such as dreams and fantasies. The course will lead to active creation of tricot pieces, garment re-shaping, felt, embroidery and crochet.
