GIOVANNA VILLANI
OWNER AND CREATIVE DIRECTOR OF BRAGHETTEROSSE
Italian, grew up in Canada, has studied art in California and New York. For more than 20 years has been a fashion designer for prestigious labels in the US and Italy. During this time she has continued her personal artistic activity through exploration of several techniques and media and has produced many works.
In 2008 - due to her anthropological curiosity- she has accepted to collaborate as leather design expert with UNIDO(United Nations Industrial Development Organization) in Ethiopia. Her experience in Ethiopia -followed by others- have gradually generated the dream to be able to use her talents and competence- untill then expended solely in a sophisticated and saturated fashion milieu-towards development and exchange with third world countries, where- other than finding great difficulties due to lack of structures and general resources- one is in contact with a vibrant culture, basic, young and natural. A society and nature which have at the same time so much to learn and so much to teach.
