			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Ricordate la segnalazione dell&#8217;anno scorso per la mostra al <strong><em>Victoria and Albert Museum</em></strong> di Londra, dedicata interamente al lavoro di <strong>Yohji Yamamoto</strong>?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://radicalfashion.ivomilan.it/it/abbigliamento/yohji-yamamoto-va-museum/#more"><img title="Yohji Yamamoto at the V&amp;A" src="http://www.vam.ac.uk/images/image/70516-small.jpg" alt="Yohji Yamamoto at the V&amp;A" width="269" height="106" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Naturalmente, non mancò di prendervi parte lo stesso maestro. Grazie all&#8217;esteso materiale  disponibile su <em>youtube</em>,  abbiamo trovato una lunga <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SyCdbBiiKyE&amp;feature=related"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>intervista </strong></span></a>realizzata in occasione  dell&#8217;esposizione. Come i suoi capi, la filosofia e la storia  professionale dell&#8217;illustre <strong>designer giapponese</strong>, superano indenni  l&#8217;inesorabile trascorrere del tempo, fornendo, anche a distanza di un  anno, riflessioni utili per comprenderne l&#8217;opera e la personalità  artistica.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SyCdbBiiKyE&amp;feature=related"><img title="Yohji Yamamoto at Victoria and Albert Museum" src="http://radicalfashion.ivomilan.it/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Yohji-Yamamoto-at-Victoria-and-Albert-Museum.jpg" alt="" width="629" height="322" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">E un&#8217;ulteriore opportunità per scoprire il  lavoro di Yamamoto è sicuramente la visione del documentario <strong><em>This is my dream</em></strong>,  presentato al <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.designfilmfestival.com/#"><em>Design Film Festival</em> </a></span></strong>di Singapore lo scorso novembre, una  rassegna cinematografica itinerante (il festival è sbarcato poi a  Berlino, Taipei, Bangkok, ecc.) dedicata esclusivamente  all&#8217;architettura, la moda, la fotografia, la street art, la grafica in  movimento, la tecnologia e le sottoculture del design.</p>
<p>Un breve <strong>trailer </strong>del film&#8230;</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8230;in attesa della nuova collezione per la <strong>primavera-estate 2012</strong>, perché non scoprire le diverse linee di Yohji Yamomoto?</p>

L&#8217;occhio è focalizzato su <strong>tendenze </strong>e personalità inedite.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" lang="en-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">L&#8217;interesse del pezzo sta nello spiegare come in Italia non esista soltanto la moda  che tutti conoscono, ma è possibile imbattersi in &#8220;pionieri&#8221; del settore, fermamente convinti che <strong>la moda non sia solo business</strong>, quanto piuttosto <strong>una continua ed ininterrotta tensione verso il cambiamento, l&#8217;innovazione</strong>&#8230;</span></span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Orlando Milan has always believed that, in order to dress someone&#8217;s body, you first have <strong>to dress his mind</strong>. This is one of the first things you should know when </span></span><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">you vis</span></span><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">it his shop</span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">in <strong>Padua</strong>.  <strong>IVO MILAN</strong> is located in the central Via Santa Lucia in a striking Romanesque house, currently the oldest civil standing building in town; even a quick first glance at the window reveals <strong>that this is no ordinary shop</strong>: dim lights illuminate a precious dress and suddenly it feels like being in a museum admiring a <strong>scuplture </strong>in a casket. The way that the <strong>windows </strong>are settled, the <strong>use of the lights</strong>, the mixture of the <strong>colours for the background</strong>, used to enhance the shapes and the shades of fabrics, are all clues <strong>that this is no mere fashion, as the attention is drawn to the art that springs from fashion</strong>.</span></span><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"> </span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" lang="it-IT"><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Orlando Milan ha sempre creduto che, per vestire qualcuno, bisognasse prima di tutto <strong>vestire la sua mente</strong>. Questa è una delle prime cose da sapere quando si fa visita al suo negozio, a <strong>Padova</strong>. <strong>IVO MILAN</strong> è situato nella centrale via Santa Lucia, in una suggestiva casa romanica, l&#8217;edificio civile più antico della città. Già dando una prima occhiata alla vetrina si può intuire che <strong>non ci si trova davanti al solito negozio</strong>: luci soffuse illuminano un vestito prezioso e, immediatamente, si ha la sensazione di ammirare una <strong>scultura</strong> nella teca di un qualche museo. La maniera in cui le <strong>vetrine </strong>sono allestite, l&#8217;<strong>uso delle luci</strong>, la composizione di <strong>colori sullo sfondo</strong>, utilizzata per valorizzare forme e ombre dell&#8217;abito, sono tutti indizi che rivelano come qui<strong> non si parli soltanto di moda</strong>, <strong>qui l&#8217;attenzione viene spostata sull&#8217;arte che da essa scaturisce</strong>.</span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://radicalfashion.ivomilan.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/IMG_3034.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-730" title="IMG_3034" src="http://radicalfashion.ivomilan.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/IMG_3034-218x300.jpg" alt="" width="218" height="300" /></a></span></span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">In 1945 <strong>Ivo Milan</strong>, Orlando&#8217;s father, following his <strong>family tradition</strong>, opened his <strong>fabrics </strong>shop, <strong>manufactured clothes</strong> and named it after himself to distinguish it from his brothers&#8217; businesses which bore the same family name. In 1967 <strong>Orlando </strong>joined the father&#8217;s company as a co-worker, and after his death, started the long work that made IVO MILAN the shop that is known nowadays. So this is supposed to be a traditional family-run business, where family values have gone from generation to generation and time seems to stand still. But Orlando Milan is not of this opinion: “Through these years we have always tried to maintain the values that my father taught me, the <strong>importance of the manufacture</strong> and the <strong>indispensable quality of the fabrics</strong>, but nowadays the guidelines of the shop are something new that I have built during this forty years of experience inside the fashion industry.” </span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" lang="it-IT"><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Nel 1945 <strong>Ivo Milan</strong>, il padre di Orlando, nel solco della <strong>tradizione familiare</strong>, aprì il suo negozio di <strong>stoffe </strong>e di <strong>abiti confezionati</strong> e lo chiamò con il suo nome per distinguerlo dalle attività che i suoi fratelli avevano aperto a loro volta. Nel 1967 <strong>Orlando </strong>iniziò a lavorare nell&#8217;azienda paterna come collaboratore e, dopo la prematura scomparsa del padre, intraprese il lungo lavoro che ha fatto di IVO MILAN il negozio che conosciamo oggi. Si potrebbe quindi presupporre un&#8217;attività a gestione familiare tradizionale, dove i valori sono stati tramandati da generazione a generazione, con il tempo che guarda al passato. Ma Orlando Milan non è di questa opinione: “Lungo tutti questi anni abbiamo sempre provato a rispettare i valori che mio padre mi ha insegnato, l&#8217;<strong>importanza della manifattura</strong> e l&#8217;<strong>indispensabile qualità dei tessuti</strong>, ma oggigiorno le linee-guida del negozio sono qualcosa di nuovo che ho costruito durante questi quarant&#8217;anni di esperienza nel mondo della moda.”</span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" lang="it-IT"><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://radicalfashion.ivomilan.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/negozio-fine-anni-40.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-780" title="negozio fine anni 40" src="http://radicalfashion.ivomilan.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/negozio-fine-anni-40.jpg" alt="" width="800" height="581" /></a><br />
</span></span></span></p>
<p lang="it-IT"><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Milan&#8217;s experience is a long path that has experimented various forms of fashion and arts, through <strong>the first Versace and Armani collections at the end of the 70&#8242;s</strong> (IVO MILAN was one of the first shops in Italy that started to sell these brands) to <strong>Japanese fashion</strong>, which in the last twenty years has distinguished this retailer from the others. Key brands that make this shop unique in its kind are <strong>Yohji Yamamoto, Junya Watanabe, Issey Miyake, Rick Owens, Martin Margiela, Shu Moriyama, Jun Takhashi and Comme des Garçons</strong>, the brand that best embodies the philosophy of the shop. <strong>Rei Kawakubo</strong> is a fervid supporter of trying to know what “<strong>has never been seen before</strong>”, and this is the most important guideline that Mr Milan wants his shop to follow: <strong>nothing</strong></span><strong><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></strong><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>must be mass-produced</strong> and everything must be different from what one usually sees. This principle is applied to everything that concerns the shop, from its furniture to the selection process that goes on behind the displaying of clothes. In fact, the limited production and circulation of the labels sold in the shop exists alongside a specific principle which determines how to choose everything that will be sold. “This principle is one which takes into account the requirements of a very well-educated, niche Paduan clientele, whose taste has not been shaped by the influences of media and television, and whose interests lie in those very special purchases &#8211; in authentically creative ones, if not in ones with a strong artistic value” says the shop owner.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://radicalfashion.ivomilan.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/canottiere-con-recupero-foulard-tutte-diverse-di-comme-des-garçons.jpg"></a><a href="http://radicalfashion.ivomilan.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/canottiere-con-recupero-foulard-tutte-diverse-di-comme-des-garçons.jpg"><br />
</a></span></span><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">L&#8217;esperienza del signor Milan è un lungo percorso durante il quale ha sperimentato i vari momenti della moda e l&#8217;aspetto artistico ad essi collegato</span></span></span><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span></span><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">,  dalle <strong>prime collezioni di Versace e Armani alla fine degli anni &#8217;70</strong> (IVO MILAN fu uno dei primi negozi in Italia a vendere questi marchi) fino alla <strong>moda giapponese</strong>, che negli ultimi vent’anni è stata ciò che l&#8217;ha differenziato dagli altri <em>retailer</em>. I marchi chiave che rendono questo negozio unico nel suo genere sono, per citarne alcuni, <strong>Yohji Yamamoto</strong>, <strong>Junya Watanabe</strong>, <strong>Issey Miyake</strong>, <strong>Rick Owens</strong>, <strong>Martin Margiela</strong>, <strong>Shu Moriyama</strong>, <strong>Jun Takhashi</strong> e <strong>Comme des Garçons</strong>, il marchio che meglio incarna la filosofia del negozio. <strong>Rei Kawakubo</strong> è una fervida sostenitrice del provare a conoscere ciò “<strong>che non è mai stato visto prima</strong>”; e la traccia più importante che Orlando Milan vuole che il suo negozio segua: <strong>nulla deve essere di serie</strong>, tutto deve essere diverso da ciò che si vede abitualmente. Questo principio è applicato a tutto ciò che riguarda il negozio, dal suo arredamento al processo di selezione che sta dietro all&#8217;esposizione degli abiti. Infatti, alla diffusione limitata dei marchi si unisce il criterio particolare in base al quale vengono scelti. “Un criterio che tiene conto delle sollecitazione di una ristrettissima clientela di Padova, molto colta e indipendente nel giudizio da condizionamenti di stampa e televisione, interessata solo a ciò che è davvero speciale, autenticamente creativo se non addirittura a forte valenza artistica” afferma il proprietario del negozio.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://radicalfashion.ivomilan.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/IMG_3047.jpg"></a><a href="http://radicalfashion.ivomilan.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Abito-Comme-Lato.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-707" title="Abito Comme Lato" src="http://radicalfashion.ivomilan.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Abito-Comme-Lato-199x300.jpg" alt="" width="199" height="300" /></a><br />
</span></span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">So the customers have to be <strong>open-minded</strong> and be endowed with a marked inclination for <strong>artistic values</strong> to understand IVO MILAN&#8217;s fashion. <strong>Radical Fashion</strong>, as Mr Milan used to call it. This name has been adopted after the Radical Fashion Exhibition at the <strong>Victoria &amp; Albert Museum</strong> in 2002, where the designers that Orlando Milan loves the most and has chosen to sell, were displayed in a collective exhibition, from Yohji Yamamoto to Comme des Garçons. “This exhibition really reflects my idea of fashion and these designers are, to me, the real essence of this concept.” he states. </span><span style="font-size: small;">“</span><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>They are “radical” in the full sense of the word: they are “revolutionary” and they are “rooted” in the art</strong>. They cut through ideas as well as fabric. Challenging established views, they have committed their lives to seeking ever more demanding expressions of “<strong>beauty</strong>”, with diverse and often provocative results”.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" lang="it-IT"><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I clienti devono quindi essere di <strong>mentalità aperta</strong> e dotati di una forte inclinazione per le <strong>arti figurative</strong> per comprendere il concetto di moda di IVO MILAN. La cosiddetta <em><strong>Radical Fashion</strong></em>, come il signor Milan l’ha definita. Questo nome fu adottato dopo la mostra “Radical Fashion” al <strong>Victoria &amp; Albert Museum</strong> nel 2002, dove gli stilisti che Orlando Milan ama di più e che ha scelto di vendere, furono esposti in una mostra collettiva, da Yohji Yamamoto a Comme des Garçons. “Questa mostra rispecchia la mia idea di moda e questi stilisti sono, per me, la vera essenza di questo concetto” dichiara Milan “<strong>Loro sono “radicali” nel vero senso del termine: sono “rivoluzionari” e sono “radicati” nell’arte</strong>”. Loro plasmano le idee come tagliano il tessuto. Andando contro corrente, hanno dedicato le loro vite alla ricerca di un sempre più richiesto concetto di “<strong>bellezza</strong>”, con risultati diversi e spesso provocatori”.</span></span></span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">But which is his conception of beauty? Again, the inspiration comes from Japan: “The guideline that always has inspired me comes</span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">from the Japanese concept of beauty, that is “<strong>the aesthetics of imperfection</strong>” (</span></span><em><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>wabi-sabi</strong>)</span></span></em><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">. I am <strong>against the logic of homologation and of display of wealth</strong> that inspires great European fashion, especially in these last years. I prefer to give my customers the possibility to portray themselves through an “</span></span><strong><em><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">understatement style</span></span></em></strong><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">” or with an </span></span><strong><em><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">idea-dress </span></span></em></strong><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">that draws the attention to the originality and to the independent spirit of the person wearing it.” </span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" lang="it-IT"><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Ma qual è questo concetto di bellezza? Ancora una volta l’ispirazione arriva dal Giappone: “Il filo conduttore che mi ha da sempre ispirato viene dal concetto giapponese di bellezza, ossia ‘<strong>l’estetica dell’imperfezione</strong>’ (<strong><em>wabi-sabi</em></strong>). Sono <strong>contro la logica dell’omologazione e dell’ostentazione della ricchezza</strong> che ispira la grande moda europea, specialmente negli ultimi anni. Preferisco dare la possibilità ai miei clienti di rappresentarsi attraverso uno <strong>stile sottotraccia</strong>, noto con il termine inglese “<em><strong>understatement-style</strong>”,</em> o con un <strong>abito-idea</strong> che evidenzi l’originalità e l’indipendenza dello spirito della persona che lo indossa”.</span></span></span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">For IVO MILAN, fashion is something far from the conventional concept that everybody is accustomed to. First and foremost, <strong>fashion is research</strong>, is an <strong>exploration of the unknown</strong>. Here <strong>ideas come first</strong>, the most interesting part of a dress is not </span></span><em><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">how </span></span></em><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">it was made but </span></span><em><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">why</span></span></em><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">. What is it that lays behind the creation? How can a designer elaborate an idea and transform it into something that everybody can wear? These are only a few of the questions that Mr Milan wants customers to ask themselves as they wander around the shop. Because the most important thing is not to sell a dress but to make customers aware of what they are going to buy, something that stands over the trends, something that will rest forever as a unique work of art. And how is it possible to make the right choice, to find the piece that will fit perfectly and will be always with you? “<strong>Know yourself and let the dress be simply a continuation of your person</strong>”.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" lang="it-IT"><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Per IVO MILAN la moda è qualcosa di lontano da quel concetto convenzionale a cui le persone sono abituate. Prima di tutto <strong>la moda è ricerca</strong>, è <strong>esplorazione dell’ignoto</strong>. Qui <strong>le idee vengono anteposte</strong>, la parte più interessante di un abito non è il <em>come </em>è fatto ma <em>perché. </em>Cosa si cela dietro la sua creazione? Come può uno stilista elaborare un’idea e trasformarla in qualcosa che tutti possono indossare? Queste sono solo alcune delle domande che Orlando Milan vorrebbe che i suoi clienti si ponessero vagando per il suo negozio. Perché la cosa più importante non è vendere un vestito ma rendere il cliente consapevole di cosa sta acquistando, <strong>qualcosa che va oltre le mode</strong>, qualcosa che gli rimarrà per sempre come opera d’arte unica ed irripetibile. E com’è possibile fare la scelta giusta, trovare l’abito che calzi a pennello con la propria personalità e che sarà per sempre con noi? </span></span>«<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>Conosci te stesso e lascia che il vestito sia la semplice continuazione di te</strong></span></span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong> </strong></span></span>»<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong> </strong>.</span></span></p>
