Ultimamente, uno dei trend macro più importanti è l'identità. Le persone stanno abbracciando la loro personalità, i loro punti di forza e di debolezza. Sui social media ci sono sempre più blogger e persone pubbliche che stanno costruendo le loro carriere in base alla loro identità, non avendo paura di mostrare la loro personalità. Considerando questo, lo studio sta seguendo la ragione per la grande importanza data agli archivi, come stanno mostrando l'identità del marchio e la cosa più importante, come sono state le persone che hanno lavorato per l'azienda influenzando lo stile e la storia del marchio e soprattutto, come hanno influenzato il settore della moda. Dopo un'analisi approfondita di archivi come Armani / Silos e Fondazione Ferrè, ho notato che la principale differenza tra loro è l'identità. I marchi stanno lanciando collezioni di ogni stagione che includono le tendenze attuali e hanno lo stile adatto alle circostanze sociali e culturali. Questa ricerca si concentrerà sull'influenza sulla moda e su quali campi hanno lasciato le loro impronte digitali nei marchi di moda più lussuosi e leggendari, che hanno rivoluzionato il settore della moda. Un altro obiettivo è dimostrare che aziende e marchi prendono l'identità di designer e artisti. C'è una forte connessione tra il designer e il suo lavoro. Tutta la sua esperienza, conoscenza, bagaglio culturale rifletteranno sullo stile e l'identità del marchio. La storia della moda è essenziale per la sua evoluzione e per i designer che vogliono creare nuove collezioni. Archivi e musei sono una fonte d'ispirazione per gli artisti. La struttura, la posizione, il modo in cui gli archivi sono organizzati e il modo in cui interagiscono con il pubblico aumentano il valore del marchio. Lo studio seguirà gli eventi e le mostre che Gianfranco Ferrè ha fatto e sottolinea le differenze tra questi e quelli che la Fondazione Gianfranco Ferrè sta facendo per promuovere la memoria del marchio, mostrando al pubblico la storia di un'importante azienda italiana. Il marchio "Made in Italy" è una prova della notevole storia della cultura italiana e della moda, un patrimonio di qualità e buon design. In quanto Italia, ogni paese ha i propri valori e eredità. La differenza tra le culture può essere vista, analizzando gli archivi dei marchi più influenti nel settore della moda. Prendendo in considerazione l'identità di Gianfranco Ferrè, lo stile e i valori del suo marchio, le influenze architettoniche rimarranno nell'anima del concept per la nuova collezione donna, aggiungendo come fonte di ispirazione e come concept le statue di Constantin Brâncusi, a dimostrazione quella moda è un'industria complessa, un'industria in cui la conoscenza e l'ispirazione non hanno limiti.

Abstract
Lately, one of most important macro trend is identity. People are embracing their own personality, their strengths and weaknesses. On social media there are more and more bloggers and public people that are building their careers based on their identity, not being afraid to show their personality. Taking this into consideration, this study is following the reason for the great importance given to archives, how are they showing the brand’s identity and the most important thing, how were the people that worked for the company influencing the style and the story of the brand and above that, how did they influence the fashion industry. After a thorough analysis of archives like Armani/Silos and Fondazione Ferrè, I noticed that the main difference between them is the identity. Brands are launching each season collections that include current trends and have the style which is suitable for the social and cultural circumstances. This research will focus on influences on fashion and which fields left their fingerprint in the most luxurious and legendary fashion brands, that revolutionized the fashion industry. Another aim is to prove that companies and brands take the identity of the designers and artists. There is a strong connection between the designer and his work. All his experience, knowledge, cultural baggage will reflect on brand’s style and identity. The history of fashion is essential for its evolution and for designers who want to create new collections. Archives and museums are a source of inspiration for artists. The structure, the location, how the archives are organized and how they interact with the public increases the brand’s value. The study will follow the events and exhibitions that Gianfranco Ferrè did and underline the differences between these and the ones that Fondazione Gianfranco Ferrè is doing to promote the brand, showing to the public the history of a distinguished Italian company. “Made in Italy” label is a proof of remarkable history of the Italian fashion culture, a heritage of quality and good design. As Italy, each country has their own values and legacy. The difference between the cultures it can be seen, analyzing the archives of the most influential brands in the fashion industry. Taking into consideration the identity of Gianfranco Ferrè, the style and the values of his brand, the architectural influences will remain in the soul of the concept for the new womenswear collection, adding as source of inspiration and as concept the Constantin Brâncusi’s statues, to prove that fashion is a complex industry, an industry where knowledge and inspiration have no limits.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
