Abstract

The article discusses the anticipatory ability of fashion products, focusing on the processual dimension of fashion design practice and its anticipatory tools rather than on the contents of the very anticipation. Through the analysis of virtuous cases, a singular tool, the archive, while formerly born to preserve the past and transfer the memory, now reveals itself as an agent able to rebuilding and activating company’s and/or designer’s know-how, therefore becoming driving force of innovation.
