Sguardi di intesa. La moda fotografata dalle donne

Sguardi di Intesa is the first institutional exhibition in our country in which a representation of the evolution of fashion photography taken by women is proposed. The exhibition is introduced by a section with images from the Sixties and Seventies that show the work behind fashion, often done by women: weavers, seamstresses, workers. A second section of the exhibition is dedicated to the authors who were the first to deal with fashion photography in Italy.
