BLISS S/S 2013 – spiritual moments in everyday life

%name BLISS S/S 2013   spiritual moments in everyday life

Lunedi 17 Ottobre 2011 mi sono svegliata un po’ emozionata: alle 10.00 in punto avrei ascoltato Li Edelkoort presentare la sua ricerca sulle tendenze della Primavera Estate 2013. Molti di voi si staranno chiedendo chi sia questa donna. Per i non addetti al settore, vi informo che Li è la guru indiscussa delle tendenze , la più famosa forecaster che attraverso svariate pubblicazioni di grande fama ( Bloom , View...) detta legge nel mondo della moda, dell’immagine, guidando i trend mondiali.

Invitata ad esporre le tendenze per l’Estate 2013 dagli organizzatori di COMON ( kermesse di cui abbiamo già parlato qui) Li Edelkoort ha presentato nell’aula magna del Politecnico di Milano(sede di Como), la sua visione del futuro. Queste , in breve, le sue suggestioni.

Le prime parole (ripetute molte volte nella presenzione) sono: il colore Bianco ( vero protagonista ) , la luce, la leggerezza e la semplicità. La spiritualità (altra parola chiave), non intesa come tendenza new age, ma come sinonimo di ritorno alle cose semplici della vita quotidiana, come capacità di saper accettare e celebrare la bellezza delle piccole cose.

Molti i capitoli del video proiettato che ci conducono in questo mondo fatto di luce, colori tenui, temi che ricordano l’ambiente casalingo e familiare, la natura, le tradizioni e le culture.

On Monday the 17th of October I woke up a little bit excited because I was going to meet Li Edelkoort, the “guru” of global trends, founder of many famous trends magazine as Bloom and View. She presented BLISS, the Trend Union forecast report on S/S 2013, in the Politecnico’s Aula Magna in Como, during the COMON festival.

The keywors she repeated before showing us the video were focused on a vison of stillness, smothness and happiness: White, Lightness, Simplicity, Brightness…and Spirituality.

Spirituality as synonymous of “simply sharing the ordinary wonder of daily existence”  and celebrating the beauty of things around us.

Many chapters of this video refer to a world made of light, pale colours, home enviroment, familiar places,  nature, traditions and different cultures
