The Project

When the art of tailoring and the expertise of a brand of bags such as Gabs Franco Gabbrielli joins forces with the artistic and experimental creativity of young students from NABA - Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti Milano, even a simple idea can evolve into something more. In this case, the project is called Marco Polo: imaginary explorations and impossible travel, created with a view to promoting integration between the company and students from the academy, in order to promote the creation of a bag concept linked to the theme of the travel, working on new prints and on the iconic G3 model by Gabs.
