Design for the Fashion System

The Fashion Design degree programme at Politecnico di Milano trains fashion designers: not isolated artists expressing their talent, but designers who are inspired in their projects and in their profession by the relationship with the fashion system and its protagonists. The polytechnic education is derived from the Italian design culture, a synthesis of craft and of profession, of experimentation and of multidisciplinary knowledge. Students at Politecnico carry out practical manual work at our labs and work out projects by means of a versatile design method, thus combining the craft traditions of Italian fashion with the new digital technologies. They attend workshops in cooperation with leading fashion companies and at the same time they deepen their knowledge on the research on new materials. In a complete and exciting educational path, one can tailor one’s studies in different fields, such as apparel, jewelry, accessory, knitwear, sportswear or further analysis of the distribution process, of retail and of visual merchandising.
