In the area of materials, components and accessories, there can be no shortage of focus on sustainability issues ranging from new biocircular tanning methods to insoles made from biodegradable biopolymers.

The women’s Fall Winter 2023/24 seen in the New York, Milan and Paris fashion shows certainly elicits references to the past, but it also knows how to be very futuristic.

For bags, an Autumn Winter 2023/24 between softness, fur, minimalism and fantasy.We fluctuate between models that focus so much on minimalism and fairly contained volumes, on monochord shades, and that rely on a wow effect caused in particular by the study of shapes, original, particular, unusual. Quite minimalist is also the approach of the bags […]

Winter is the season of boots, and the coming cold season is no exception: fashion is pointing to chelsea boots, as well as amphibians and combat boots, often customized with metallic accessories or fur inserts. Not too far away is the sound of revolver shots announcing the return of Texans, featuring metallic and jeweled accessories, […]

Also for this season, MariaCristina Rossi, Designer and Lecturer in Arsutoria School’s design courses, takes us on a journey of discovery of the themes seen (or that we can infer), in the fashion shows for the upcoming Fall/Winter ’23-24. (Video in Italian, subtitles will be available shortly)

The allure of Biker and Military, with strictly carrarmato bottoms, continues to attract buyers, often featuring distinctive laces and zips.If you are looking for something new, still in the short boots category, you can opt for a western flavour.

Ascolta la video-intervista di Alessandra Colombo, studentessa del Diploma Annuale Borse, che racconta com’è passata da un lavoro nella finanza a un impiego presso uno dei più importanti marchi del lusso grazie al corso in Arsutoria.

Masculine Future is the name of one of the areas that Pitti Uomo dedicated to men’s fashion during the last event. A future that is not easy to intercept, as it crosses many areas of taste, creativity and style.

Design, materials, shapes, volumes and colors of footwear and leather goods for the upcoming spring/summer 2024 are influenced by this trend that relies on imaginative materials, very sinuous shapes, metallic surfaces, and the upcycling of organic materials. Adventure and technique also collide in color palettes that contrast and overlap.

By now it is clear and obvious, the world of footwear structures can no longer ignore the issues of sustainability, the constant and incremental search for new materials, whether they are of organic or recycled origin. Almost all of the innovative designs proposed for the upcoming fall winter 2023/24 have emphasized environmental friendliness.

The fall winter 2023/24 season will be characterized by the spasmodic search for Possible Worlds that seek other stories, stories we have never heard and told, through knowledge, relationships, thoughts, and words we have not yet found or for some reason discarded

The innovations seen at Simac Tanning Tech 2022 cover all steps of leather processing and mark important steps forward on the sustainability front. Machine manufacturers’ attention is focused on improving environmental performance with solutions that en- able the reduction of water, energy and chemical consumption while lowering waste production and emissions of all kinds.

Quality and precision of processing, homogeneity and repeatability of results, detection of criticalities and errors. These are the central aspects of certain technologies that must fulfill the increasingly demanding requirements of brands.

The focus is no longer on improving the individual machine, but on thinking about increasingly integrated, automated and flexible production processes.

Consumer safety has undoubtedly been the focus of debate and regulation for many years. That of workers? So is it, but a positive acceleration on the subject is recent.

Energy saving and the use of materials with organic or recycled content, these are the key points on which technological innovation pivots when it comes to sustainability.

The great fears on the horizon have not prevented Lineapelle from returning to growth and showing glimpses of a recovery that has brought attention back to some pivotal themes for the coming seasons: design with a marked dose of creativity, increasingly high technical quality and, it goes without saying, sustainability.

More serene and relaxed sounds that for the coming 2023 summer season rely, certainly and very much, on colour to rekindle energies and vitality that have been forcibly dormant.
