Innovation for the fashion system, one of the key sectors of the Italian economy, doesn’t depend only on product innovations, but the role that new digital technologies have applied to design and production processes is increasingly crucial. Industry 4.0, or smart manufacturing, is called the fourth industrial revolution because it can substantially redefine the way in which designers and companies work and respond to the changing needs of the market and consumers.
Thanks to the participation of professors and professionals of the field, the "Fashion 4.0" course faces up to the themes dedicated to new digital technologies applied to the fashion industry processes aimed at supporting all phases of the creative and production process, from design to 3D printing.
Industry 4.0, the trend that will most influence the future of the fashion economy, is configured as the tool to revise the traditional production processes, renewing them and helping to increase the competitiveness of Italian fashion companies.

The course aims to prepare students for the world of work through the development of projects whose briefs are set and formulated similarly to those in the forefront of the industry.
The course aims to train professionals able to manage the different phases of the design process in the fashion product in an innovative way.
The preliminary objective of the course is to provide students with useful knowledge to use virtual scanning tools, 3D design software and production technologies through additive printing applied to the sector. The ultimate goal is to be able to digitally design fashion products and manage modeling and production processes.

Today digital technologies are increasingly used in many production sectors and are profoundly changing the entire supply chain. Their application to the field of fashion is a reality. The new designers must adapt to the change taking place: today designing means not only having creativity, but also knowing how to use the right tools. This course allows you to develop useful skills for working in the fashion industry 4.0.

In order to apply for the admission to the course, the candidate must have a good knowledge of Illustrator software, Photoshop and the Adobe package and digital modeling software.

At the end of the course a MFI certificate is delivered to each student.

The course will be carried out through theorical lessons, a workshop for the digital design of a fashion accessory and a workshop for 3D printing.
