ROME – The British embassy hosted an event on Tuesday celebrating the revolutionary role of fashion and highlighting its support for the LGBT campaign, Love is GREAT. Speakers at the event discussed amongst other things miniskirts in women's emancipation and the right of the Roman LGBT community to express itself without fear, as Rome gears up for its annual gay pride celebration in June.
The event, in the form of a discussion named “The Aesthetic of Revolution” and held at Villa Wolkonsky, was part of the UK's campaign to promote LGBT rights worldwide.
