During the 2009 Milan Design week I set up “Alternative Endings” with a costume maker and a few local collaborators on a busy street corner close to Porta Genoa. We offered to replicate each visitor’s clothes in a color chosen for the day. We began with seven bolts of differently colored fabric and the project ended after a week. After each replica was made, it was given to the participant to keep.
