Sculptural installations designed by AquiliAlberg Milan, Triennale di Milano, January, 17th, 2010 Neil Barrett, presenting his Autumn-Winter 2010 collection on Sunday, January 17th, chose to collaborate for the first time with AquiliAlberg, a Milan-based architectural and design studio. The designer chose two of AquiliAlberg’s sculptural installations as a background for his latest fashion show. The Neil Barrett AW10 collection highlights the designers specific style by cutting garments up and splicing them together in new ways, horizontally, vertically and from back to front to create HYBRIDS. Set against the sculptural backdrop designed by AquiliAlberg, the collection is also a nod to the myriad ways that architecture influences dress. AquiliAlbergs installation – an innovative interpretation of space – is a variation on the design studios work for “The Fragile City” exhibition at Triennale di Milano.
