Missions and goals
We do not offer an education as a fashion “stylist" but as a fashion “designer”. That is not an artist, isolated in his own talent; but a designer who is inspired and linked to the industry and its constraints. Therefore, the Fashion Design Degree at Politecnico offers an interdisciplinary approach to its students who can customize their education in fashion choosing from different areas of study: from menswear, womenswear, kidswear to jewelry and fashion accessories, from knitwear to sportswear, underwear and beachwear. This programme provides the student with the cultural, scientific, methodological and technical-instrumental elements constituting the foundation of design activities in the fashion field: from materials and technologies to product, image and comunication, 3D modeling and prototyping, management and design directions.
Career opportunities
The Bachelor of Science prepares fashion designers. Graduates in Fashion Design can apply for positions in professional studios or companies in the fashion fields of clothing and accessories and related industries (textile, fashion, accessory, jewellery, knitwear) as well as in upholstery companies with particular reference to textile furnishing accessories (household linen and home wear).
Possible further education
Subject to evaluation of their curriculum, graduates in Fashion Design may continue their studies with a Laurea Magistrale (equivalent to Master of Science) in Design for the Fashion System. With admission always subject to an evaluation, graduates may choose other Master of Science programmes or 1st level Specializing Masters.
