FASHION TREND|FORECASTING

Become a fashion trend forecaster!

Innovation and development are the keys to success in business.
The main aim of the course is to produce professional figures such as the Trend Forecaster and Trend Specialist capable of foreseeing future trends in textiles, colours and forms, but also of best interpreting them to create new collections.

Factors and tendancies that influence trends and consumer behaviour.
The Master course will provide students with an accurate understanding of global trends, whether social, political or ecological, as well as of those factors which influence future trends and consumer behaviour.

Applying ideas and cultural phenomena.
Course participants will learn how to analyze cultural ideas and phenomena, and to apply these not only to fashion, but to any given design field (such as textiles, furniture, cars, etc.).

A solid grounding for the Fashion Forecaster.
Course content embraces the wide range of subjects relating to the concept of trends. Aspects of contemporary culture and modern philosophy will be considered in order to provide a solid grounding that will enable the student to develop the skills and qualities of a future trend forecaster.

FASHION|STYLIST

Become a fashion stylist!

The Fashion Stylist is an independent expert in style and image making. The stylist creates the final image to represent a brand by inventing brand icons, images and looks for all players in the fashion world: designers, magazines, retailers, advertising agencies and celebrities. S/he works for photoshoots, look books, shows or magazines.

Fashion Stylists create future trends. They understand how to position a brand and act as liaison between photographers and editors; professionals in this field require not only specific competencies but also a highly developed aesthetic vision and talent, indispensable to understanding and absorbing the most innovative concepts.

Students will follow in the footsteps of famous stylists such as Carine Roitfeld, Joe McKenna, Olivier Rizzo and many others who worked for photographers such as Mario Testino, Mario Sorrenti, Inez Van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin, Steven Meisel or Tim Walker.
