From Watamu's "kibanda" to the magnificent scenery of Piazza Plebiscito in Naples, to parade in a fashion gala next to world-famous designers such as Rocco Barocco.
This is the story of Watamu's tailors' clothing, helped by Virginia Ciaravolo's "Never More Infinite Violence" association.
After starting this collaboration and sponsoring Watamu girls through the strength of their own work, Virginia took advantage of the ModArte fashion show, organized by the vice-president of the non-profit organization, Rosa Praticò, to present in a unique and prestigious setting, in the presence of great designers and personalities from the world of art and culture, the creations of the "tailors" of the resort.
It was certainly an important stage for the debut of solidarity fashion from Kenya to Italy, but also an opportunity to raise awareness of African fabrics and promote the tourist resort in a large Italian city.
Virginia Ciaravolo had just a short time since her usual regular trip to distribute help and check progress of works and projects in schools where "Never more never-ending violence" works. This time with her was the chef Pietro Parisi from Campania, a well-known face of the RAI.
