May 2024

Those who move and work in the fashion industry can never neglect the aspects of design, trends and new proposals for future seasons. And so it is, in fact, also for the forthcoming Spring/Summer 2025, in which many soles and structures and heels pursue the search for aesthetically innovative solutions still working on light volumes.

Those who move and work in the fashion industry can never neglect the aspects of design, trends and new proposals for future seasons. And so it is, in fact, also for the forthcoming Spring/Summer 2025, in which many soles and structures and heels pursue the search for aesthetically innovative solutions still working on light volumes.

Many are focusing on various aspects of sustainability, starting with the identification of materials that are increasingly devoted to recycling (both as a starting point and as an end-of-life perspective). Many efforts are also being made to research bio-based materials. In addition to this work on materials, however, there are also those who develop production systems and processes that can make the design and construction of structures not only more efficient, but also more environmentally friendly.

Aesthetics and creativity yes, one cannot do without them, but efforts to imagine new perspectives in design and production is undoubtedly the next frontier to look out for.
