Was checking out the space today at Barney’s. Sometime in early May I’ll be helping to host a fencing and fashion event for the charity Right To Play.
We’re going to decorate the room with some large fencing photography and imagery that people will be able to bid on along with other items in an auction.
I’m excited to help raise money for a good cause and promote fencing at the same time!
Italian Olympic Fencing Champion Valentina Vezzali (pictured above) walking in a fashion show in Milan are mentioned in this months WWD Collections magazine along with Diego Occhiuzzi, Aldo Montano and Margherita Granbassi.
On page 31 of the Spring ’09 Edition it reads:
Fencer Valentina Vezzali was flanked by two of her peers, Diego Occhiuzzi and Aldo Montano, who believes there’s more of a connection between fencing and fashion than meets the eye. “Fencing is synonymous with elegance, from the atire to the chivarly and posture,” said the Bronze Medalist.
Vezzali and Italian Silver Medalist in Fencing, Margherita Granbassi, were also invited by Laura Biagiotti, who front row is regularly graced by athletes.
I love the quote by Montano and a great job by the Italian Fencing Team. They seem to be the most active country in terms of promoting the sport.
The mention was part of an article on Olympians being involved in fashion and it talks about Lebron James, Amanda Beard, Nastia Liukin, Alicia Sacramone, Ryan Lochte and others attending Fashion Week in NYC.

US Olympic Fencer Jason Rogers also attended that fashion week dressed by Calvin Klein.
Fencing really is out there a lot more than people realize and references to fencing appear constantly in ads and on television. All we really need to do is start connecting the dots!
I also think branding today’s fencers as the “Modern day Knights” with the ideas of chivalry, dueling and honor behind it would be very catchy.
