Fondazione Sozzani hosts Lessico Familiare with Abecedario. The presentation ironically explores the creative process of a collection made not only with needle and thread but also with objects, words and smells. The clothes are accompanied by photographs by visual artist Tiziano Demuro and texts by writer Jonathan Bazzi. The event is part of the official calendar of Milan Fashion Week.
Opening party
Tuesday February 25th, from 1PM to 5PM
Lessico Familiare is a home clothing project born out of boredom and joy. Designed and assembled at home, it is an attempt to translate one’s familiar lexicon into disassembled and reassembled garments, often magnified. Preserve the memory by curling up the yellowed curtains and mending the damp cloths. It is one-season, an in-progress tale where garments come and go with no rush. The aim is a sort of lexical continuity, neither new nor nostalgic. The name is a clear tribute to Natalia Ginburg’s “Lessico Famigliare” and to the families we were born into, the ones we choose and the ones we are building, undefined and precious.
