    INTRODUCTION

    After years of "intage-oriented styles, the renewed focus on structure, shape and ultimately design,

    witnessed over the past few seasons, continues togain momentum#$rom an attitude of passeist retreat we are now once again turning to future%

    Tomorrow future, which is loosing its cold edge, will reintegrate reassuring values and beanimated with fantasy-futuristic energy%Tomorrow the refuse that overwhelms us, the notions of $air Trade and recycling will become prete!ts for heightened creativity% &ow more than ever, our yearning for colour and te!ture will enhance our vision of a future that

    tended to be too virtual% 'rain, thickness, sheen, subtle harmonies and chromatic vibrations will bring more human touch%

    (eanwhile, the everyday environment takes a pragmatic turn% $ashion codes are less complicate,messages are clearer% This season show its dual nature) there is time for tran*uillity, intimacy,

    softness, for the simple poetry of functionality, but there is also a time for self-e!pression, personali+ation, breaking away from normality%
