MICH VASCA INTERVIEW

Michael Spartano is the soul of "Mich Vasca"; a niche leather goods brand. It was born in response to the need to meet the needs of people through aesthetics and functionality.

When did you decide to become a designer, and why did you choose to dedicate yourself to bags?

"It happened when I turned 20, somehow my vision of the world at that moment took a direction, made room inside me a feeling of incomprehensible melancholy, and at the same time, I began to become more and more interested in the accessories industry. I have always been a great observer; above all, I am fascinated by people and their habits; therefore, I have oriented myself towards a product that could tell their identity."

When was your brand born, and what is its philosophy?

"Mich Vasca was born with the first experiments during 2014, as a gradual response to the need to communicate an emotional design and at the same time functional. The accessories I make are genderless to highlight my distance from any socio-cultural prejudice."

What is the concept of your collections?

"My sources of inspiration are essentially two: on the one hand, geometry in all its expressions, from architecture to painting, I'm almost obsessed with it. On the other, nature, its scents, its colors, the sense of peace and inner calm that the natural world can communicate to us, in every manifestation is enclosed something genuine and incomprehensible."

Which materials do you prefer and where are your products made?

"Mich Vasca gives a fundamental value to the research of raw materials, an essential phase at the base of the production process that entirely takes place in Italy, between Emilia Romagna and Tuscany. The collections are built with genuine leather, synthetic, and technical fabrics, part of an assiduous exploration of innovative materials. The constant traceability of materials is fundamental to create a durable product, making it sustainable. The brand is heading in a mostly 'green' direction to minimize the environmental impact, from the early stages to the final packaging."

What are you presenting for White's WSM project?

"I present the Mich Vasca collection, mostly composed of continuous pieces, the result of a work aimed at achieving a strong ability to identify."
