3434km, it is the distance from Tehran to Venice.
A group of people moves from one city to another, looking for a personal evolution. Each outfit is designed by the person who wears it. Classic masculine fabrics of western fashion are combined with the chador and “kapanak” (the felt garment of shepherds and the Dervishes) illustrating the separation, melancholy, and identity.
Look 1 - THE MUSICIAN: A Kapanak-shaped trench coat with the Tuareg architect's internal blue cover.
Look 2 -THE WAITRESS: women's suits made of cotton chador fabric and embroidered to enrich the homemakers' garment.
