Marco Rambaldi's AltaRoma Show Weaves Feminism and Fashion

Marco Rambaldi presented his A/I 2018-2019 collection 'Vogliamo le rose' at AltaRoma in Rome, which concluded on January 28. The runway opened with the voice of actress Monica Vitti from Ettore Scola's film 'Dramma della gelosia. Tutti i particolari in cronaca', where she played Adelaide, a cemetery florist. Rambaldi's collection tells stories of women's rights struggles from the 1970s to today, featuring models of diverse ages, including an eighty-year-old woman. The designer incorporated slogans like 'Abbi cura di te', referencing Sophie Calle's 'Prenez soin de vous' at the 2007 Venice Biennale. The collection was produced under exclusive license by Errebi srl, and Rambaldi continues to apply lessons from IUAV. The show was a manifesto against violence and for post-feminism, using tailored suits, jacquard knits, and vinyl coats.
