APPROACH
Theoretical/project-based

This course aims at providing the necessary knowledge linked to the development of professional skills in the fashion world. Through individual meetings focused on the composition of a visual representation of the collection, the students have a chance to create a fashion book that will be a decisive tool to convey their ideas and competencies. In dedicated meetings, the students will get in contact with different fields of their professional world, and learn their specific dynamics.

This course is made of a single module of 6 CFA

Successful students will be able to:

• Master visual communication tools, so as to present original fashion projects

• Understand the dynamics behind the professional world

• Familiarise with the figures and roles in their professional field

Front lessons and regular reviews will guide the students through the graphic representation of their projects, which will include all the research, design, development, and representation phases.

Also, the course aims at providing knowledge and analysis tools that can be applied to the relevant professional industry. Some classes will see the students meet professional figures from the industry of their interest.

This is a theoretical/project based course.

Over the course, the students will carry out didactic activities that are functional to achieving the learning goals, that may vary and, in both modules, may include:

• Front lectures

• Development of individual projects
