Andrea DiFiore of DiFiore New York’s new silk scarves are currently on display in National Geographic’s “Ocean Odyssey” Fashion Show
Ms. DiFiore was asked by HiTech Moda, to create designs specifically for the show. “Ocean Odyssey” comprises the work of established and emerging designers who are conscientious about the environment and employs a mix of high tech and traditional designing. As part of their Ocean Odyssey Exhibit, National Geographic’s visitors experience a virtual ocean where high tech meets the deep sea.
Di Fiore has always been a supporter of the natural world. When she was asked to design works specifically for National Geographic, she was elated. Growing up with NatGeo magazines and later as an adult subscribing to the NatGeo Channel, DiFiore was honored to be part of this show.
Tickets are available at National Geographic Encounter, 226 West 44th Street, Manhattan, or at https://feverup.com/m/73790
