Cultural and sustainable fashion initiatives in Milan

Overview

Milan has hosted initiatives focused on cultural expression and sustainability within the fashion industry. The Afro Fashion Association and Levi’s launched the ‘Voices of Denim’ exhibition at Casa degli Artisti, a year-long partnership showcasing projects from 30 Black, Indigenous, and people of color creatives in Italy. This exhibition utilizes fashion design, photography, art, and videography to reinterpret denim heritage.

Additionally, the CORE project held an event in Milan’s Tortona Fashion District exploring the intersection of denim, art, and sustainability. The event featured a denim cube-sculpture by GEOCOT, incorporating graffiti-inspired art by SEXSDREAMS and live upcycling interventions by SCPT Moda Lenta, aiming to connect creative identities with manufacturing to promote responsible fashion.
