Miuccia Prada and me on this #tbt I worked for this amazing forward-thinking Creative Director and artist for 13 years. She definitely influenced my thinking and help me define very clearly my own philosophy and Pelush new take on fashion. “Success in fashion today very much depends on how connected the designer is to culture and the arts, and a social climate which sustains it. Fashion cannot exist isolated, but as a part of an integrated system, which can generate ideas. We need to bring together philosophers, art curators, sociologists who can generate such ideas. Resisting modernity can be damaging. A system needs to be recreated, conceived”. That’s why I think now is the time to change the way we make fashion. Today we know all the cruelties behind these “luxury” industries, therefor it becomes the obligation of all the new upcoming designers to be more responsible and compassionate towards the welfare of the animals and the environment.
