How has your everyday-life changed? What do you do to fulfill your day?
I do my best to make my days productive, work on school projects, broaden my culture by reading books and following live on Instagram and podcasts; all without losing social contacts, but rather trying to expand them through digital means.
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?
For sure the solution is not to stop, this period allows us to reflect and rediscover ourselves, so I think it can give many creative ideas and new inspirations. By attending a fashion business course, I try to keep myself informed on what is happening in the sector, in order to be as prepared as possible, in order to also think about new strategies to apply to my projects.
What is your biggest fear right now?
My biggest fear right now is about my future, when in about a year I will have finished this school path, and I will face the world of work in a historical moment not very favorable to the fashion sector. But I am comforted by the awareness that I am doing my best to be as prepared as possible and I hope that my efforts today can be useful to me tomorrow.
What will you do once all of this is over?
I expect the future in the image and likeness of those who are my greatest needs of the moment and which reflect - I think - also those of today's young people, or a great desire to communicate, explore, make new acquaintances, and many experiences.
