Over a hundred projects have arrived from the most qualified European schools of fashion. Vibrant creative energy, great vision and excellent technical standards are the common features of all projects, which have come in. Hard times for the MarediModa technical panel which needed several evaluating sessions and in depth analysis to decide the names of the semifinalists. After a first phase of pure creativity and style, semifinalists have been tested in modeling and manufacturing. What has clearly emerged from a general evaluation is that, almost all the works designed for this edition contain a clear message rebirth and a strong desire to reinterpret the language of fashion with new symbols, less gloomy and more colorful. This message which comes from young people is a real challenge for the near future.
