Posted on Sunday, 13 May

For this monthly special I wanted to portrait a particular couple from Florence, Italy.
She is a student at IED Moda Milano and working as freelance fashion stylist, he is a musician and studied at the conservatory of Music.
Visually speaking they reflect the perfect combination of style and research. They both are in a way related each other by the passion of music, fashion and lifestyle. They interviewed each other and what came up is an interesting mash-up of their personality and features!

NAME: FRANCESCA LODDO
AGE: 21
FROM: ITALY
OCCUPATION: FASHION STYLIST, STUDENT

NAME: ALESSANDRO SEVERI
AGE: 24
FROM: ITALY
OCCUPATION: MUSICIAN

IFTKIDSAU: FRANCESCA, TELL ME WHO’S ALESSANDRO

FRANCESCA: A fireman musician. How do you feel Alessandro?

ALESSANDRO: I don’t think I get it right. What are you expecting me to say to such a question? So I’m gonna answer you in the easiest way: I feel good. What about you? Moreover how do you feel with yourself?

FRANCESCA: WTF! Since the anarchic nature of this interview I can invoke the right of not answer you. Bye Ale! (joke) We all knew that you are totally inspired by the Ramones, apart from that what else inspires you?

ALESSANDRO: I identify myself in few things but inevitably I’m inspired by what I see, feel and touch. For me being inspired from something concrete means death. In the end we’re all kind of boring from what surround us and we change our thoughts and lifestyles so fast that we forget what is really important. Let’s change argument, which part of yourself would you like to maintain in the future? 

FRANCESCA: My hairs! (joke) My resourcefulness, I hate people who do nothing and who are not enjoying life. What would you eat forever?

ALESSANDRO: Finally food! I think I’ll eat forever Pizza but my conscience won’t let me! If you were a famous Country singer what will be your moniker? 

FRANCESCA: It will be Miss Shabby. But I don’t know Country music that much. I’m that kind of geek that when spins records plays only Prozac+  and than realize that she’s not 16 anymore. I’m just a Dj and you are a real musician so how much my shitty music influenced you? 

ALESSANDRO: if I was inspired by your music probably I would have stopped play ages ago. Let’s get back to serious things: how do you see yourself in the future?

FRANCESCA: If i think about it I’m gonna get paranoid! But if everything is gonna take the right turn and if the future will be with you, I would get a plane to Bali, have a place in Berlin and huge collaborations for my work! The question for you will be the same, is a must! How do you see your future?

ALESSANDRO: I have no idea! I just would like to conserve the things that I care about and that I would to be take part in my future! Tell me something you never say to me!

FRANCESCA: I am your mother! Would you like to come with me to do the Transsiberian this summer? Can you teach me how to play Ukulele?

ALESSANDRO: I’m Jean Claude Van Damme!!

IFTKIDSAU: Moral of the story: If the kids are?

ALESSANDRO: INDEPENDENT!
FRANCESCA: NAKED!

IFTKIDSAU: HOW DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN TEN YEARS?

VERA: I would like to know…

IFTKIDSAU: WHAT ARE YOU THINKING ABOUT WHILE YOU GET DRESSED?

VERA: My mood of the day. I often prefer a total black look, frequently I mix womenswear garments with menswear. It’s always something instinctive and emotional.

IFTKIDSAU: IF YOU COULD TIME TRAVEL IN WHICH ERA WOULD YOU LIVE?

VERA: In this era: with all of its pro and cons. I’m not that kind of nostalgic person, I like to think about the future.

IFTKIDSAU: IF YOU COULD BE REBORN WHO WOULD YOU BE?

VERA: Me. I’m not a big fan of someone else’s life, I prefer to be inspired by people I know in reality such as: my friends, my classmates, my colleagues and so on..

IFTKIDSAU: IF YOU WERE FOOD WHAT WOULD YOU BE?

VERA: Spaghetti in squid ink sauce: fascinating and for connoisseurs

IFTKIDSAU: 3 BLOGS YOU CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT?

VERA: Honestly I can’t tell: sometimes I think they are indispensable but at the same time they are unnecessary. Nowadays the “blog” idea is in a way fucked. I believe that exclusivity is a philosophy of life.
