STYLE

Lucia Russo creates her Urban Couture concept in 2014 inspired the OP ART of Victor Vasarely and innovating by exclusive textile design techniques, whose know-how allows the saving of water and materials promoting a techno-couturier lifestyle. The Vision of her Millennial and Zettabyte target combines the practice of street-style as a blackboard on which to note claims of the discovery of themselves, in a gathering of patches, tapes and trimmings that mark the passage from tropical places to urban destinations, stories to live matching modernity and vintage recall. The creative expression of de-structured elements creates the "dissimilar concept" that puts together menswear and womenswear tailoring influences.
