"The proliferation of the society of the end of 21st century and
22nd century did not emerge only from a desire of evolution
and development, but also from a lack of debates and
reflections about the consequences we could suffer latter.
Today, we are then, a world produced by the exhaustive and
greedy attempt of reaching an utopia. However, looking to what
surround us, the right term to apply is dystopia.

Dystopia has the aim of making use of fashion as a vehicle of
critic facing the past and posterior attitudes of humanity about
such a delicate matter as the Global Warming.
How possible would be to live in a world where temperature is
so high that exposition to sun burns the skin? Or where the air
is so soiled that breathing is a sacrifice?
How can fashion fit a world where clothing can no longer be
seen as an adornment and a way to define a personality, but
instead as protection to the environmental conditions? Would
individuality and personality be lost? Will we become less and
less communicative beings?
