The Craftsmanship of fashion. Italian touch

Description

In Italy, the finest cloth in Europe is woven and hand-assembled to the exacting specifications of prestigious fashion houses-and it comes at a very steep price. This program visits an exclusive fabric fair, the wool looms of Zegna, the silk printing presses of T.J.S.S., a clothing assembly plant, and a fashion trade show to demonstrate how Italy's best craftspeople turn thread into cloth and cloth into some of the most luxurious clothing in the world. ESCADA's Brian Rennie, Paolo Zegna, and Werner Baldessarini, of Hugo Boss, are featured. A Deutsche Welle Production.
