To body the manifest is also to dress with a purpose. To print in our clothing what we want to scream into the world. If we are to be flashy, at least let it be for a good cause - our own. And there is so much more to choose from, because messages, more or less subliminal, from each designer, are almost always transversal to the issues of the moment.

In all shapes, forms and sizes. Stripes are back in the center of attention, thanks to the boldness of names like Chloé, Chanel, Balmain or Carolina Herrera. Rebellious and iconic, they mean good mood and immediately uplifting. The different colors and textures picked by designers guarantee a series of unexpected effects, all of them with a maximum impact.
