Walter Albini is the designer who created Italian prêt-à-porter and invented the Total Fashion concept. An eclectic artist, he combined quotations from the 1920s and 1930s with the needs of contemporary culture in a graphic research of exceptional value. In order to preserve his creative identity he did not succumb to the rules of the market and disappeared from the scene once fashion became an industry.
