CULTURE AND THE IMAGINARY OF FASHION
COIL BOLOGNA FIT.
This is an experimental class (Coil project) in collaboration with FIT/State University of New York, prof. Yuni Kawamura.
This course brings together students from two institutions, Bologna University in Rimini and FIT in NY, to exchange their thoughts and ideas about culture and fashion which have been debated with much intensity in the American and European fashion industries. Students examine and explore how some designs are considered cultural appropriation while others are accepted as cultural appreciation. Weekly online interactions with peers from different backgrounds and countries raise their cultural awareness, and it provides them an intercultural experience and a broader view on culture and fashion.
