1. Veronika Voss for Sportmax Trend research and design of a FW 2015-2016 collection
Veronika Voss for Sportmax Trend research and design of a FW 2015-2016 collection The work group was able to understand the design philosophy of Sportmax through the deep analysis of the brand. Afterwards the key themes of the collection have been chosen by various inspirations as the film “Veronika Voss�, Graves, the Memphis Group and Grace Jones. These selected themes have been developed thanks to a product research. All work steps, such as picture research, mood design, design of technical drawings and sketches, were performed by all group members. Teamwork. Politecnico di Milano, academic year: 2014-2015.

2. The line Capsule collection inspired to Aubrey Beardsley
The line Capsule collection inspired by Aubrey Beardsley The basic concept of the collection has been developed on the lines of the graphic Aubrey Beardsley, characterized by great dynamism and structural nature. Therefore, this structural line is not limited to the mere aesthetic, by means of structural cuts in the patterns and decorative graphics. Indeed the inspiration to Beardsley graphic can also be seen in the prints and colors, used for the clothing fabrics.

3. 3D shoes Digital modelling with SolidWorks
3D shoes Digital modelling with SolidWorks For the final work of the Laboratory of digital representation was reproduced three-dimensionally, the shoe “without heel� of Giuseppe Zanotti, with the use of the SolidWorks software. A scene was set up later with some items of furniture and a three-dimensional model was created always using the same program. Finally the render of the display was made, giving materials and colors to surfaces of objects with KeyShot.

4. Hmong in the city Denim through cultures
Hmong in the city Denim through cultures “Hmong in the city� is based on research on denim in Hmong people, known for traditional garments embellished by colorful embroidery. Noticeable is the comparison between the Hmong clothing and the modern Western one. This has cast a simple silhouette, appeal to Western slim volumes, to an elaborate fabric, thanks to tie-dye and patchwork. The concept led to the creation of the fabric material and then a dress was sewed and a shooting was carried.

5. Biotic Park Jobs of the future
Biotic Park Jobs of the future Biotic Park is an hypothetical artificial island of the future, with the aim of preserving the animal and plant species on the planet and at the same time to let tourists visit the various habitats. This island, born from a project on the professions of the future, is the place in which various professionals operate. So the group of work has specifically designed outfits for the diver, that has been also realised, the biologist, the veterinarian, the scientist, the maintenance engineer, computer technician, scientist, and the tour guide.
Teamwork. Politecnico di Milano, academic year: 2014-2015. Course: Project for fashion.

6. Ferrè through a white shirt The reinvented shirt
Ferrè through a white shirt The reinvented shirt The workshop on Ferrè’s shirt has been done on the theme of the reinvented shirt. Thus the designed shirt has been realized in less than a week and has been built with the aid of the modeling, playing with cuts and volumes. A shirt was obtained with its own shape, well defined in space, in which classical elements have been reinterpreted and differently re-presented, as puffed sleeves modeled through the use of convex pences.

7. Travel inside car Dialogue between Fashion and Interior Car Design
Travel inside car Dialogue between Fashion and Interior Car Design For the thesis project a collection was made starting from the theme of travel, more precisely from the trip inside cars. So the clothes thought and realized are modelled on the body following the inspiration of Interior Car Design. Moreover two duvets have been made using special diamond-shaped and padded sections with Thermore. These sections have been sewn to each other, replacing classic cuts. Indeed some clothes’ armholes and side seams are no longer visible, creating an homogeneous whole.

8. Sparkling / Shadows Dresses for a special occasion.
Sparkling / Shadows Dresses for a special occasion. Sparkling / Shadows is a mini-collection consisting of two evening dresses designed for special occasions. The dresses have a simple fabric and volumes, whilst the fabric of corsages is very rich, thanks to sequins. The skirts of dresses, both in the short version and the long one, are made of chiffon. For each dress has been addressed the design, modelling, cutting and packaging.
