Alexandra Fede Scientific Stylist: when science meets fashion…
Alexandra Fede has a unique role in the fashion system. She is virtually one of the only stylists actively researching and technology transferring to fashion, the research and the innovations of many scientific areas for over ten years.
Her experimentation started within the Haute Couture and then extended to prêt a porter.
She is a consultant for Du Pont de Nemours, Mitsubishi Materials Corporation and Ermenegildo Zegna.
She has been global Ambassador for La Scala di Milano restoring with hi tech systems, over 5000 stage garments for this world famous Opera House.
The philosophy behind all this research is not only the stylistic beauty but also the functionalities of garments along with the protection and well being of the person.
Her style and her life philosophy have introduced new aesthetics where the application of Hi Tech doesn’t exclude the interest for natural shapes and fibres.
In November 2003 Alexandra Fede has organized in Paris the i-WEAR show within the European Science & Technology Week 2003 presenting garments engineered for the European Space Agency and creations from her catwalks like BodySculptor™, StressLess™, TecnoGold™, JoyDress™, LightDress™, AntiViolence®.
In March 2004 Alexandra has been a special guest at the CTIA Wireless Fashion in Motion in Atlanta.
April 26th to 28th 2004 she will present her collections at the Intertech Flexible Displays & Electronics in San Francisco.
