Man reflects on his role and interaction with the environment, sustainability, and the dynamics between nature and artifice. This theme inspired the collection of twenty-five outfits, born from the fusion of artistic expression and sustainability, to raise awareness and stimulate individual commitment. The outfits, made by reusing old paragliding sails, are transformable and adaptable to cope with climate changes.
