Istituto Marangoni was founded here, here where the greatest names in Italian prét-â-porter, Domenico Dolce, Franco Moschino and Alessandra Facchinetti, made their homes. The school is right in the city centre, two steps from the fashion avenue par excellence, Montenapoleone, and inside the so-called ‘quadrilateral of fashion’. In Milano, fashion is everywhere, and at Istituto Marangoni students find the skills to interpret and guide trends, through programmes that are constantly being updated. Here professionals and highly specialized technicians who are ready to work in the fashion world at the highest levels are trained in creativity, organization and commerce. After the opening of the Milano Design School, some of the fashion courses in Milano will be delivered both at Milano Fashion School (1) and Milano Design School (2).

The foundation qualification allows students to make an informed choice regarding the course at Istituto Marangoni that best suits their skills and

abilities, and it can lead to progression to the three-year undergraduate programmes. It is a year of new challenges and ideas that will improve the

student’s critical independent thinking. The already acquired experiences and skills will be further developed with creative projects and practical

techniques.

Academic discipline is at the heart of this course, focusing particularly on intensive learning. It involves in-depth study of analytical principles, techniques for exploration and enquiry, and research into context and materials. This is done

through a learning approach that identifies and capitalises on each student’s strengths and emerging talent. English language and study skills support the communication of ideas in both the verbal and written format. Creative projects

will be followed by specialist routes into fashion design (with business), and fashion communication (with styling, graphics and photography). Part of the course involves

developing an individual creative style and concept ideas to take forward over the subsequent three years of study.

Undergraduate Programmes | BA (Hons) Degree1 • Three Year Course2

The aim of the three-year course in Fashion Design is to produce professionals with multiple skills and knowledge in the field of fashion, capable of using all the techniques of

clothing manufacture and of responding to new demands in fashion and luxury.

Participants start with the study of drawing and design techniques, fabric analysis and the manufacture of clothing, as well as aspects of industry production are also covered. The study

of trends allows one to create a contemporary collection that can meet the demands of the target audience while respecting brand equity. The training requires participants to try their hand at everything from the basics of drawing in black and white to fashion illustration, with

the goal of developing a totally personal style. The learning of research techniques, trends or markets are just as important to the achievement of learning objectives: individual research is in fact the foundation of the educational programme and evolves over the three years with the aim

of providing students with all the necessary tools to create their own clearly defined, unique and differentiated collection. The training also leads prospective professionals to use all the languages of visual communication in fashion, including new media. In the final year of the course, the best

collections are presented during a fashion show.

The fashion designer is the source of creative ideas and new trends, not only in clothing but also in textiles and in the world of accessories and luxury. Designers create collections, starting with an accurate analysis of materials and fabrics and use communication codes that come from art, cinema and design.

They are experts in marketing and fashion and know how to calculate timing and production costs to meet the needs of the target consumer and anticipate trends, while respecting the brand’s image. They are able to design womenswear, menswear and accessories, with an eye constantly attuned to new style codes.

the fashion designer is the one who anticipates trends and determines the success of a brand

The fashion designer is the most important figure in fashion. The designer inspires the creative ideas of the fashion world, managing creativity, technology, information and the understanding of fashion

trends. The professional may work for their own company and additionally co-operate with several fashion firms and fashion studios both nationally

and internationally. In order to be a fashion designer participants need to know about more than just designing or planning a collection. Today the

designer also needs to be a good researcher, to know the context of fashion and its history thoroughly, and must succeed in identifying style. Fashion

designers must know the market and, at the same time, be able to predict the development of taste. Moreover, they have to know the fashion business

system extremely well.

The purpose of the three-year course in Fashion Business is to train professionals to use the language of marketing, management and finance in the field of fashion and luxury.

The three-year training course addresses all issues related to the marketing and development strategies of a brand, identifying the values that characterise the fashion identity of a company (equity). An understanding of the principles of economics and finance enables the participant to measure profitability and ensure compliance with budgets, while

also implementing a specific control system for fashion companies.

The study of the cultural, sociological and historical dynamics of the development of fashion design enables participants to understand the influences held by trends in different countries and systems. The participant will be able to define strategies for coordinating a commercial proposal and developing a collection that expresses fashion trends and meets specific production-related lead times and costs.

The analysis of a retail network and the development of digital marketing will allow participants to understand the distribution channels and policies for buying and for visual merchandising that characterise in an absolutely unique way the field of fashion and luxury. At the end of the study cycle, participants will undertake a research project that will result in a business plan for a start-up or the brand extension of a fashion business.

The fashion manager is one who studies the fashion scene, analyses the competition and checks out product development, planning, promotion and sales channels, collaborating with the design department and with all the production departments. Fashion managers can evaluate the intrinsic characteristics of the fabrics, the evolution of counsumer habits, lifestyles and the needs of the market. They know the techniques of sales and marketing. They define the price range and the target audience, and are skilled in coordinating business partners and employees.

Undergraduate Programmes | BA (Hons) Degree1 • Three Year Course2

The aim of the course in Fashion Styling is to prepare professionals and creative people to work within the fashion system in areas of visual communication ranging from the fields of publishing, advertising, visual merchandising and trend or style forecasting to blogging. Presenting contemporary and future trends, enhancing the collections of designers, informing and inspiring their readers: this is the exciting mission

of a fashion stylist. By the end of the programme participants will gain the ability to recognise different styles and trends, clearly define their personal vision of a product and propose innovative and professional ideas successfully.

The course makes it possible to investigate the various aspects of the profession of a stylist, starting with the study of the interactions between clothes and accessories and going on to building ‘stories’ out of fashion and contemporary trends for photo shoots and video footage, working

in symbiosis with photographers or film makers and finding the correct balance between individual style vision and the needs of clients, while managing the visual identity of subjects to be photographed.

Finally, thanks to the study of specific subjects related to fashion styling and editorial writing, participants will be able to comment on fashion and prepare advertorials to captivate various target audiences. The ultimate goal will be the independent creation of a portfolio that fully expresses the

personality of the participant. The stylist is an expert in fashion communication and must be able to produce and define the winning combination of component parts for an image that is needed to emphasise the style of a brand, a magazine or a person. This can be achieved through the careful

use of clothes, accessories, hair and make-up, through atmosphere and location and through the knowledge and analysis of contemporary and future trends. The skills lie in interpreting the soul of an article of clothing and communicating it through a unique style.

programmeI year• semiotics of clothing• objects and environment• identity• history of art and dress

II year• fashion writing and criticism• fashion editorial• magazine design• fashion and culture, contemporary perspectives

III year• career exploration• final major project• researching theory and practice

The task of the fashion stylists is to communicate fashion through images. They have great sensibility towards fashion and can create a style which is immediately identifiable and recognizable by means of advertising campaigns, magazine photo shoots and fashion shows or by creating the visual displays for retail. This creative job requires a thorough knowledge of fashion and its history as well as of trends, style and

taste. This must be complemented by a knowledge of photographic techniques, computer based image editing, setting, lights, make-up, hairstyle and accessories. Fashion stylists fill roles that are pivotal to obtaining the success of a collection.

learning outcomes• develop the creative, intellectual and

technical abilities necessary to work in the fashion industry;

• apply and demonstrate the creative use of cutting-edge communication technologies;

• demonstrate the ability to transfer ideas and information to the different constituents of the fashion system;

• interact effectively with others through collaboration and negotiation.

aakanksha rahul suri • india ‘Since I want to study fashion design, the foundation course helps me learn about

materials, colours, textures and many new techniques, which I will be using in the future. It enhances the skills required for fashion design. The assignments

are related to the stream you choose which gives you an insight into what you will be doing in your BA programme.’

stina hultgren • sweden ‘I chose Istituto Marangoni because it is located in an exciting part of central London. I adore
