Days ago the fashion designer Angelo Marani passed away (he was seventy years old), renowned name  in the realm of ready-to-wear and knitwear – founder of company Marex producing the label which brings his name and brand .GIULIAMARANI, created by the bright daughter Giulia Marani – kind man who stays in the hearts of the ones like me were lucky enough to know and be close to him and his marvelous family. He was a joyful and generous individual, eager and untiring worker. Creativity, lightness, warm-hearted attitude and humility are some of features of  Angelo, ironic man, intellectually and morally honesty, who was always contemporary as it is evidenced by the Spring/Summer 2017 collection he made, presented during the Milan Fashion Week. That was the event where I saw Angelo who talked to me about the sporty-chic suggestions from Seventies, the Hollywood glamour that were embodied in it. Creativity and technology, a wide consciousness in terms of manufacture, sense of cloth are the alchemies impressed in the creations he made, productions and different combinations of materials, evidencing the excellence of made in Italy. That is the way I like reminding and as he deserves. Dear Angelo, I say you goodbye and I hug you with all of my love, respect and sympathy.

CIAO ANGELO

È venuto a mancare giorni fa il fashion designer Angelo Marani (all’ età di settanta anni), rinomato nome nell’ ambito del prêt a porter e della maglieria – fondatore dell’ azienda Marex che produce la sua etichetta e il brand .GIULIAMARANI, creato dalla brillante figlia Giulia Marani -, uomo di grande umanità che resta nei cuori di chi come me ha avuto il piacere e la fortuna di conoscer, esser vicino a lui ed alla sua splendida famiglia. Gioiosa e generosa individualità, lavoratore alacre e indefesso. Creatività, levità, calore e umiltà sono alcuni dei tratti di Angelo, uomo ironico, intellettualmente e moralmente onesto, sempre al passo con i tempi come si evince dalla sua collezione primavera/estate 2017, presentata in occasione della Milan Fashion Week. Questa, la circostanza in cui ho incontrato Angelo il quale mi ha parlato delle suggestioni sporty-chic, Seventies,  del glamour hollywoodiano che erano in essa racchiuse. Creatività e tecnologia, un’ ampia consapevolezza manifatturiera, senso del tessuto sono le alchimie impresse nelle sue creazioni, lavorazioni e svariate combinazioni di materiali che testimoniano l’ eccellenza del made in Italy. Questo è come mi piace ricordarlo e come merita. Con tutto il mio affetto,  stima e simpatia, caro Angelo ti saluto e ti abbraccio.

“CLICK”: ART & FASHION UNDER THE SIGN OF GIULIA MARANI

Art and fashion features in “Click”, the Spring/Summer 2015 collection by the bright, young fashion designer Giulia Marani, inspired by the lyricism of landscapes by the photographer Andrea Tonellotto. The visions and urban geometries of photographs he made, the instantaneousness of shoot made with Polaroid camera, find a new context in fashion and are impressed on the prints and textiles that emphasize their dynamism. The craftsmanship made in Italy, a family’s attitude(being Giulia the daughter of Angelo Marani) is embodied in creations that are a genuine passé-partout. Clean and fluid lines, some of them caress the silhouette, reinterpret the volumes from Sixties where it shines a smashing research, experimentation, high-end materials(viscose, cotton, silk) and care for details. An alchemy of bright and light colors along with black and white, cloths and yarns, inlay works, thought to emphasize the idea of movement, give rise to a fresh, versatile and contemporary elegance.

Arte e moda sono i protagonisti di “Click”, la collezione primavera/estate 2015 della brillante, giovane fashion designer Giulia Marani che si ispira al lirismo dei paesaggi del fotografo Andrea Tonellotto. Le visioni e geometrie urbane della sua fotografia, l’istantaneità di uno scatto della Polaroid trovano un nuovo contesto nella moda e sono impresse sulle stampe e tessuti che ne enfatizzano il dinamismo. La maestria artigianale made in Italy, un’ attitudine di famiglia (essendo Giulia la figlia di Angelo Marani) è racchiusa in creazioni che sono un autentico passe-partout. Linee pulite e fluide alcune delle quali accarezzano la silhouette e reinterpretano i volumi degli anni Sessanta in cui splende una formidabile ricerca, sperimentazione, alta qualità dei materiali (viscosa, cotone, seta) e cura dei dettagli. Un’ alchimia di colori accesi e tenui unitamente a bianco e nero, tessuti e filati, intarsi, pensati per sottolineare l’ idea del movimento, dà vita ad un’ eleganza fresca, versatile e contemporanea.
