APRITIMODA: discovering Italian craftsmanship.
Since 2017, ApritiModa has been bringing the public, for one weekend each year, to discover the most hidden and secret places of the fashion world. Places where creativity, genius, and our craftsmanship are preserved: the highest expression of Made in Italy.
On Saturday 23 and Sunday 24 October, ApritiModa returns throughout Italy, the event that opens the doors of over 80 ateliers and workshops belonging to renowned brands and internationally recognised centres of artisanal excellence. A mosaic of extraordinary places, traditionally closed to the public, where visitors can discover the “behind the scenes” of fashion and craftsmanship.
Through free visits with mandatory booking, it will be possible to enter historic palaces, hidden courtyards, and former factories transformed into creative spaces, meeting the protagonists and seeing how creations are born from the genius, culture, and artisanal skills of our territories.
ApritiModa has reached its fifth edition, the second on a national scale, and this year introduces new additions to the traditional mix of participating ateliers, workshops, and museums. Among them are eyewear manufacturers and umbrella makers, true examples of Italian excellence.
Moreover, this year ApritiModa will offer special visits to discover some of the most interesting creative and production experiences in ethical and sustainable fashion. Projects of great value, including social value, and courageous stories that deserve to be told.
ApritiModa will tell, one by one, one hundred stories: stories of places, people, and businesses.
The project was created from an idea by Cinzia Sasso and developed together with Eleonora Grigoletto, Lidia Pezzoni, Emma Pradella, Andrea Chisu, Mariavittoria Zaglio, Marta Marcolin, and Marialuisa Apreda.
On 23 and 24 October, the places to discover.
On 23 and 24 October, the places to discover.
Come and discover the most beautiful Italy there is.
Opening the doors of fashion houses means offering a unique opportunity to experience firsthand the beauty and uniqueness of these places. It means revealing the extraordinary heritage of skills, quality, and knowledge. It means piecing together, tile by tile, the mosaic of the most beautiful country in the world.
ApritiModa is therefore enriched with many new proposals, and on the website www.apritimoda.it it is possible to discover all the events taking place in 12 regions and, starting today, conveniently book your visit. Reservations are mandatory in order to ensure everyone’s safety.
