Between craftsmanship and underground culture<\/h2>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

In 2020 it certainly cannot be said that knitwear is one of the main cult <\/em> garments among young people, let alone what young people meet again.<\/p>\n

Choosing to make knitwear a symbol of Italian style nowadays seems to be a great contradiction. There is however a brand that has tried to change the rules, a cool <\/em> and completely Made In Italy knitwear: <\/em> here you are VITELLI <\/em> <\/strong> <\/a>.<\/p>\n

The young brand, now in its sixth collection, is inspired by different moments of the Italian youth subculture of Cosmic<\/em> <\/strong>: a peaceful and anti-ideological movement born at the end of the lead years (1980-1984).<\/p>\n

Times when young people shouted “music is culture” on the dance floor of the Cosmic <\/em> on Lake Garda or the Melodj Mecca <\/em> in Rimini, the first to offer non-commercial music; from electronics to punk, from dark music to psychedelic.<\/p>\n

These clubs became the reference point of the “Cosmic Youth”: wide and crumpled sweater, well-kept beard, tight pants and sunglasses: what we would now call hipster <\/em>.<\/p>\n

What the brand is based on is precisely that hippy aesthetic <\/strong> of the oversized wool sweaters, must-haves of the 80s.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Total made in Italy <\/strong> and based in Milan, Vitelli produces its knitwear garments in the ancient spinning workshops in Vicenza <\/strong>, the birthplace of Italian knitwear and the cultural center of these young people ” stoned “.<\/em><\/p>\n

To celebrate them, the Vitelli brand has created six different collections <\/strong> that ironically tell the youth culture of the eighties.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Each collection aims to reinterpret the style <\/strong>, the thought and mood of those years, promoting what can today be considered “cosmic” within the youth culture, the visual and performing arts.<\/p>\n

The autumn winter 2018 campaign is titled “ trip in Tyrol <\/em>“, tells the images of young people lost in the Tyrolean mountains: music, smoke, nature and transhumance. Things that those who grew up in those “Millennial” years would love to go back to doing.<\/p>\n

Since 2019 <\/strong> Vitelli is committed to sustainability with the DOOMBOH <\/strong><\/a>: using only yarn recovered from the scraps of Vicenza knitwear, through a special process, a fabric of threads is created with which to rigorously make non-binary total looks and without any waste.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Vitelli with its collections and advertising campaigns highlights an Italy that is not only pizza-mafia-mandolin, but promoter of the European clubbing scene, the Italy of youth revolutions.<\/p>\n

It takes us on a cosmic journey in which fashion doesn’t necessarily have to be <\/strong> futuristic, hybrid, hyper-technological, as we expect, but the future can be born and come to life from a not so distant past.<\/p>\n

Among the various collaborations, the Vitelli brand also boasts the one with the emerging Fantabody: the brand that celebrates the body of women <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
