How has your everyday-life changed? What do you do to fulfill your day?
Being at home 24/24h, I feel like I even have too much time. Since I have no longer all the commitments I had before, I am trying to force myself to have a routine, including reading, sports, studying and finally something funny.
Your work is built on creativity. While we’re all in quarantine, what is your solution to keep on being creative? Where do you find your inspiration in this moment?
I think that this situation where we are all close in our homes could actually be a hint for my creativity; fashion itself is the result of many social and cultural changes. The solution is to never stop, catching everything we can from all the cultural resources we have left (books, movies, magazines...) but also from the experience we are living.
What is your biggest fear right now?
First of all, I am worried for the economy of the Country, but also for its very health. And for the environment, too. I hope that having breath a more clean air, we could remember the significative impact that men have on our Planet, so that we take much seriously the climatic emergency.
What will you do once all of this is over?
I think that, once we will be back to normal, we will not take for granted many things we did before, might it be to spend a night with our friends, going to the movies or simply take a walk downtown. I imagine a future in which we will give those little things more value, since they have been taken away from us.
