Fashion brand WAMI presented the Spring Summer 2023 Collection with a first Black Made in Italy live fashion show in the history of Milano Fashion Week. Exactly two years ago in 2020, Stella Jean took a firm stance and stated she would not return to Milan Fashion Week until she was no longer the only Black Made in Italy designer on the official MFW schedule. Since then, one has become WAMI. The collection features looks made by Stella Jean, Edward Buchanan, and talents scouted by Michelle Ngonmo.
SPRING SUMMER 2023 COLLECTIONS
Today WAMI is the largest and sole national collective and incubator comprised of multicultural Made in Italy, with all designers hailing from migratory backgrounds, representing and working toward the substantial multicultural transition of the Italian fashion sector with an acute focus on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. For the very first time during Milan Fashion Week, a LIVE fashion show featuring the largest number ever of representatives from Black Made in Italy on the same catwalk will take place. – from WAMI
