Alta Roma Alta Moda is Rome's celebrated Fashion week, whose two annual appointments in January and July, create innumerable opportunities for the meeting between historic Italian fashion houses and new, international creative and production realities.

Tradition and sartorial workmanship, cultural heritage and projects targeted towards the future. In Rome, fashion's DNA carries that sense of craftsmanship and material culture that, today, is manifested in neocouture.

This is the distinctive trait of Roman couture, which re-engineers contemporary style, interpreting it through garments and accessories which, in synergy with the city, make the Alta Roma Alta Moda event an ideal stage for the present.

The driving force behind Italian haute couture and a new launch pad for emerging designers, Alta Roma is synonymous with tradition and experimentation.

From the promotion of Made-in-Italy products to the safeguarding of the artisanal values that have made Rome famous throughout the world, Altaroma's mission is based on maximizing all forms of excellence ranging from the most traditional right up to neocouture, considered the definition of a new language, a meeting place between sartorial tradition, research and cutting-edge trends in an international scenario boasting a meld of art, fashion and culture.

We selected for you models from the Spring/Summer 2014 collection by Christie Brown during the 'ITC's Ethical Fashion Initiative and Alta Roma - Bring Africa to Rome' show atthe Alta Roma Alta Moda Fashion week in Rome, Italy. The Alta Roma event runs from 06 to 10 July.
