Alessandro Dell’Acqua and Tomorrow Launch Mentorship Program – WWD
Thu 17 Sep
NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK: No. 21 founder and creative director Alessandro Dell’Acqua and Tomorrow London are launching a mentorship program for emerging designers.
Starting from this fashion month, each season two brands — one Italian and one international — will be selected by Dell’Acqua who will offer them a design and collection development consultancy service, while Tomorrow will advise them in terms of production development, marketing and distribution. In addition, Dell’Acqua and Tomorrow, which last May unveiled a partnership spanning distribution, events and strategy, will also host the emerging brands’ sales campaigns at Milan’s Garage Ventuno showroom venue.
“I’m convinced that our initiative designed to help young talents constitutes a true occasion for them to get in touch with a wide international audience of journalists, buyers and fashion industry professionals,” Dell’Acqua said.
