Move On Moda – Sustainable Fashion Show

Theme: “Rooted in Heritage, Reimagined for the Future”

On Saturday, 27 September, five aspiring Zambian fashion designers will present their first upcycled capsule collections as part of the Italian Embassy’s Move On – Moda initiative.

The show is the culmination of a fashion residency these young designers have been participating in under the expertise of Valentina Sardella (Pezzeculiar); after a month of mentorship, collaboration and workshops focused on sustainable practices and the rediscovery of a Zambian fashion identity in fusion with Italy’s world-famous style and design, their collections are now ready to hit the catwalk!

A distinguished panel of fashion experts and sustainability advocates assisted by Marina Spadafora, Professor of Ethical Fashion and coordinator of Fashion Revolution Italy, will evaluate the collections based on their creativity, sustainability, craftsmanship and storytelling to crown an overall winner.
