NABA, Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti x McArthurGlen
McArthurGlen and NABA, Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti have partnered up for an upcycling project that gives clothes and accessories a second life. Students at NABA Academy will be creating two capsule collections which will be composed of 20 total looks (10 per centre) that will be on sale for customers to purchase at Castel Romano and Serravalle.
These garments will be sold in two temporary pop-up stores that will both be located at the above centres for a 2 week period (06 Dec – 19 Dec).
The Project
Collaboration
McArthurGlen has partnered with NABA Fashion Design Area to develop bespoke garments which reimagine clothes recycling. Up and coming design talent will work on a one-of a kind collection ranging from high street ready to wear pieces and O'couture pieces.
Unleashing Creativity
We are committed to our local communities and showcasing talent and our collaboration with NABA is our latest project to nurture creativity. By working with the best design talent in the region we are proud to present artisanal pieces for a good cause.
Sustainability
Our work with NABA is reimagining clothes recycling. By up-cycling garments by using creative flare and the latest design techniques, we are giving a new lease of life to old garments.
