The Prince of Wales and his charity The Prince’s Foundation have joined forces with Yoox Net-A-Porter Group, launching The Modern Artisan, a project designed to help students and graduates 'create a sustainable luxury capsule collection of menswear and womenswear as part of a new training initiative to strengthen textile skills training'.
The autumn/winter sustainable capsule collection will be exhibited at the Michelangelo Foundation’s Homo Faber showcase of European craftsmanship in 2020, and Yoox Net-A-Porter Group Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Federico Marchetti, commented 'This project will help equip a new generation of skilled men and women to fuse traditional craft with digitally-infused creativity - and, importantly, to do so sustainably, following the example of HRH The Prince of Wales who has dedicated the last 40 years to building a more sustainable future'.
