The stand at Milano Unica is also an opportunity for Alcantara to celebrate the work of winners and finalists from the latest edition of Who is on Next?, a competition organised by Altaroma and Vogue Italia. All the main garments and accessories from the final catwalk can be viewed, including the winners' creations - for prêt-à-porter, Marcobologna, and for accessories, Giancarlo Petriglia, who created a dog-walking bag with Alcantara.
