Teaching modeling in an organic way, from the body of each one, resulting in pieces full of personality is one of the main objectives of the course Uncomplicating modeling , a partnership between the Vale Maranhão Cultural Center and the renowned stylist Rita Comparato. Divided into nine modules – materials, measurements, base, pence, sleeves, collar, top, skirt and pants -, the course will be shown weekly on Wednesdays, at 7 pm, on the CCVM Channel on YouTube, from the 17th. In it, the public will learn to improve creativity, logical thinking and understanding of the dimensions of the human body, making conventional modeling more practical and objective. Owner of an extensive curriculum, Rita helped define Brazilian fashion in the early 2000s, alongside fellow stylist Dudu Bertholini. The Neon brand, authored by the duo, has won the world, being present on TV shows, international runways and showcases, and stages of famous singers. Today, Rita is dedicated to her Irrita brand, which mixes impeccable technique with irreverence and creativity, in a business that strives for production and conscientious consumption, creating exclusive pieces.
