What to see in Milano Unica 43: exhibitions, sustainability, and innovation
Among the most anticipated features of this edition stands out the exhibition “The Radical Elegance”, created in collaboration with the Gian Paolo Barbieri ETS Foundation and hosted in the MU Tendenze Sustainability area: a dialogue between great fashion photography and the excellence of Italian textiles. The theme of responsible production remains central, with spaces dedicated to low-impact technologies and processes.
On the innovation front, the Innovation Area Forum presents the “Human-Centric Performance Textiles 5.0” project, which brings together smart materials, digital technologies and advanced solutions in a person-centred vision of technical textiles. The creative concepts, the beating heart of the event, drive the mood of the edition as always with inspirations that change from season to season.
Manifattura Foderami Cimmino, active in the textile industry since 1750, will be present at the Milano Unica event, in Pavilion 5, stand E31. It will explore new developments within a privileged observatory on the trends and needs of an ever-evolving market, where manufacturing tradition and materials research continue to define the value of Made in Italy fabric.
