Tailoring Tradition Meets Modern Excellence: A First-Hand Look at Triennale Milano and Kiton’s Paris Exhibition
As a menswear expert, I had the privilege of experiencing the Tailoring School. A Journey into Education exhibition at the Istituto Italiano di Cultura di Parigi, presented by Triennale Milano and Kiton. This exhibition is a testament to the extraordinary craftsmanship and deep cultural heritage of Italian tailoring, beautifully showcased through Kiton’s Tailoring School, founded in 2000. The immersive experience allows visitors to witness the dedication and artistry of young tailors, passing on ancient techniques while embracing modern training methods. The display highlights the invaluable role that skilled craftsmanship plays in preserving traditions and shaping the future of fashion. Through engaging visuals, personal accounts, and live demonstrations, this exhibition highlights Kiton’s commitment to excellence and the importance of craftsmanship in today’s fast-evolving fashion world. As someone who has spent my career immersed in menswear, this exhibition reaffirms the profound value of education, precision, and passion in tailoring, and its pivotal role in preserving timeless sartorial legacies.
