Fashion Design

Fashion as Art

The expanding of artistic knowledge and the evaluation of those signals that indicate a new trend in an artistic, cultural or social environment are of great use to the designer who can translate these data into fashion design proposals.
Today art has exceeded the traditional boundries to occupy new territories including that of fashion.

Based on the conviction that clothing can be an artistic fact, the Accademia Italiana of Florence (Italy)proposes this one-year Fashion Design master course with the aim of potentializing the design capacities and the professionality of those students who have already acquired the necessary basic techniques.
The training process involves contact with fashion designers and industries, the study of the strategies linked to visual communication and to the use of media, the design and production of clothing and of accessories.
Fashion is intended as a global system where the various areas of interest inter-react and where the fashion designer-creator becomes a key figure endowed with ample flexibility as well as specific competencies.
