Founder & Blogger

Francesca Basile

It’s been a year since I launched the blog Sterlizie and there could be no better time to celebrate not just my wonderful experience as a blogger, but most of all the incredible talent of the people of which I have told in my articles.

Sterlizie is primarily about Fashion, with a strong focus on emerging brands and special projects; you can also find hints of Art and Design. It is exactly this independent creativity that I wanted to bring together in the collection “One Year of Sterlizie Blog”: a careful selection that is representative of the new wave of Italian and international talents. They are the bearers of a new aesthetic based on a practical know-how and on the rediscovery of traditional craftsmanship, renewed thanks to the mix with modern technologies or through the collaboration of creatives with different skills.

Enjoy the beauty, be curious and continue to follow me on Sterlizie!
