A world reimagined with cultures coexisting and enriching each other in harmony. Far from the discussions of cultural appropriation for. new generations that want to mix cultures, fuse its different influences with as much energy as in music. Using the codes of folklore, outsider art, fiber art, ethnicity at its best, a strong message is being sent invading all surfaces and aesthetics. Multiple influences and a mixture of ethnic, folk and pop cultures all come together to embrace the new consumer. The pleasure of vibrant and energetic colors is combined in different intensities for a positive mood. Embracing the power of energy while opting for a more decorative and layered look that encourages expression and personality. In an age of rapid consumption and production, artists and designers are veering towards handmade practices, like-minded design, in order to create collective, ethical and conscious cross-cultural collaborations for a kaleidoscope of creativity. Handcraft and natural dyeing techniques are returning to the fore and offer a more commercial way to bring natural interventions to the surfaces.  For a more versatile use, bio-based sustainable waterproof coatings that are also dirt-repellant can add unique qualities to a fabric. Also, purely sporty, with technical inserts and synthetic fibers while keeping an eye on recycling, on the recovery of materials and products, on the upgrading of unsold items in a creative key.  Possibly 100% recycled or replaced by innovative materials, elastane- free, with adaptable and versatile constructions. Compact jersey, knitted fabric, Milano jersey, but also piqué and textured or perforated knits, with a colorful and vibrant spirit. 

A strong sense of historical and cultural awareness is coming together as never before with the use of a strong palettes of radiant yellows, spicy oranges, bring fuchsia pink and deep primary colors. They can be used in a multi- color or with a monochrome approach. A mix and match of exotic, bright shades, reinforced by surprising touches of colorful accents for an artistic touch especially for prints, embroidery or other applications. Colored neutrals, pinkish beige to be combined, with intense flashes of folk hues: purple, fuchsia, geranium, but also turquoise and aqua green to emphasize the presence of decorative elements, at times precious. Patterns and graphism inspired different cultures and traditional folklore, revisited in a contemporary version
