Valensia Moda in Florence. Two days at Creative Mani Factory
On 3 and 4 October Valensia Moda comes to Creative Mani Factory in Florence, the market dedicated to independent artisans and designers in the spaces of Manifattura Tabacchi. Two days to handle what online you can only look at: the silk of the shirts, the drawing of the paisley.
What happens at Creative Mani Factory
Creative Mani Factory is a market of independent artisans, designers and creatives, hosted in the spaces of Manifattura Tabacchi in Florence. On Saturday 3 and Sunday 4 October, from 10:00 to 20:00, the complex turns into a route of stalls where every exhibitor brings their own work, from the drawing to the finished product. Valensia Moda takes part with its collections. Unique pieces, conceived and made with care.
The Fantasia Valensia prints on show
The paisley pattern is the signature of the brand, present on the silk shirts and on some jacquard details. At Creative Mani Factory we bring these pieces off the screen, for a direct conversation with the people who design and make them.
Why does seeing a silk shirt in person make the difference?
A photograph conveys the colour and the drawing of a print, but not the hand of the silk. The weight of the fabric, the way it falls on the body, the sheen that shifts with the light. At Creative Mani Factory you can handle the shirts from the Fantasia Valensia collection, look closely at the paisley design and the finishes, and ask us the questions that online always stay open.
Where and when: Manifattura Tabacchi, Florence
We look forward to seeing you on Saturday 3 and Sunday 4 October, from 10:00 to 20:00, in the spaces of Manifattura Tabacchi in Florence. If you are in the city on those days, come and see us: it is a chance to see the Fantasia Valensia collection in person and talk directly with the people who create it.
