This week we welcomed Phase 2. Slowly we are recovering our lives. We started by visiting our families and getting back in touch with our "steady affects". However, there's no reason to lower our guard. Masks will be with us for a long time and are indispensable in this return to life. With the summer season, we cheer up this long difficult period, coloring it with imagination. Mask is now a must-have accessory, we learn to convince ourselves by customizing it or entrusting ourselves to fashion.
Stylish masks, the favorite models
Just browse the web and we find masks for all tastes. From the super-colored ones in washable fabric to the chic ones in leather.
we can recycle old scarves, T-shirts or jeans to sew our masks, which obviously are a must to protect ourselves from Covid-19. If, on the other hand, we are incurable fashion victims, then we can focus on buying the trendiest masks online. There is enough for everyone. And then, avoiding the disposable ones, we also avoid waste.
And are instantly in vogue
Masks may soon become an interesting business for the fashion industry. After the initial difficulties, the intervention of many stylists who made it important donations to research or the Conversion of some factories to create coats necessary for health workers during the emergency, the creation of masks as a fashion accessory to match with our outfits, could become the new target. Italian fashion supply chain is fundamental on a global level. And it is an important part of our economy.
We need colors
After these long and gray months, confined to our homes, we need color. Let's avoid the dark ones, which are sad, and we aim for the summer ones. Attention obviously to match them and to choose the ones that best suit us depending on eyes and hair. The younger ones have already thrown themselves on the Off White mask.
The favorite is the yellow one with the black logo. Those who love super brands, do not give up having Gucci or Louis Vuitton. To be honest, the masks had already appeared on the catwalks of the spring-summer 2020 collections. Now, with the explosion of the infection, it has become essential to have them. We will all remember the very popular singer Billie Eilish, who arrived at the Grammy Awards wearing a black Gucci voile mask. The pop star ended up on Vogue in January anticipating what the 2020 trend would be. Long before the WHO spoke of the global epidemic.
A way to respect the environment and others
Wearing the mask has long been a healthy habit in many countries of the world. They have been doing it since the time of Sars, to protect themselves from possible infections but also against pollution.
What happened has changed the way we think and reason. Armani bluntly said that the fashion system must change its rules. Stop excesses. Let's review our way of being but without giving up on that color note that helps us keep our mood up. We embrace the idea of providing ourselves with an accessory necessary to protect our health and that of others. Green light to imagination and customization. Tutorials to make them easily even at home can be easily found on the web. We hope for the industry to be the decisive turning point towards a green change with care for the environment. But above all respectful of work and life as a whole.
