About

I am an Italian fashion designer, art seeker and after working in development for 3 years between London and Paris, I am motivated to redirect my career towards design. I just ended a MA in Womenswear at Marangoni in Milan (after winning the Vogue talent Scholarship). My passion towards art is definitely my driving in every project I start, in fact I’ve been working during my master year at Museo del Novecento, and I am the creative director of two art collective: “ The Plastic Family” and “Sparc”. https://elenaalaimo.wixsite.com/ilmiosito https://www.behance.net/elenaalaimo https://www.vogue.it/vogue-talents/gallery/istituto-marangoni-vincitori-responsible-evolution/amp https://www.artsthread.com/portfolios/stamina--high-basic
