NEW TALENT: Francesca Colussi for Furla Talent Hub Autumn Winter 2011/2012 Collection. Textile design is the starting point for the collection designed by Francesca Colussi for Furla Talent Hub. The capsule collection “Le Mille e una Notte” (One Thousand and One Night) comes from intense research conducted by Francesca Colussi. The young designer’s aim was to create ornamental motifs that could translate the emotions evoked by the famous book of oriental tales into “signs”. Francesca designed, cut, erased and simplified until the incredible stories, which have reached us intact through centuries and across a cultural divide, were transformed into images.
