The memory of Jolanda Veneziani (Taranto 1901 – Milan 1989), leader of the birth and establishment of Italian fashion in the 1950s and ‘60s, is entrusted to the very rich and extraordinary archive that documents her life and work, safeguarded and valued by the Fondazione Bano in Palazzo Zabarella in Padua. It is a kind of magic kaleidoscope that takes us back on waves of nostalgia to the enchantment of that period through various materials: splendid dressses and equally precious accessories, figurines that remind us of an inexhaustible creativity, newspaper cuttings and magazine covers that confirm her fame around the world, films in which the people, places, parades and events live again, and above all a collection of about 2000 period photos, many of an astonishing beauty, like those taken through the lenses of great photographers.
