1. Polimoda aims to be Italy's
#1 school in the fashion sector. The school is supported by 50 shareholders - by 20
institutions and 30 fashion companies
including many top world fashion brands
2. Polimoda is based in Florence.A great location for fashion stimulus,
close proximity to fashion production companies (company visits)
and a
superbly intense array of out of school activities, events,
shows, fun etc.
3. A Summer School at Polimoda can be
a great refresher or a fast way of
getting into the thinking of the fashion world. Many
students stay on to take
mainline courses in the following years (at both the undergraduate
or Masters level).
4. The same quality teaching staff that
produce the successful Polimoda
programmes during the year are present during the summer to
lead the courses.They
are lively,
practical and nearly all are regular "practioners"
with current jobs and
responsiblities in the fashion world.
5. The Polimoda Summer School is a great
place to network. Connections
made with the fashion world this summer stay
on way after the course is finished.
6.
Polimoda is really international. From
Canada to Australia, from Russia to South America, you will meet student
colleagues from all around the world who come to Polimoda because:
a) of its recognised high quality teaching (see top press quotes here
in the website)
b) they know of Polimoda by its reputation
c) its location in Italy and, particularly, in Florence.
7. It is practical. Thanks to its founding partner's
legacy (FIT New York). We don't talk fashion - we DO it.
And judging by the number of mainline course Polimoda students who
get jobs in the fashion sector (70-80%), we do it rather well it seems.....
8. Polimoda is approachable and friendly. We
enjoy being the "top school" but we decided to be outgoing
and rebuff the cleeky Fashion introspection that often keeps great
student potential out. Send a mail toinfo@polimoda.comfor more information and admissions materials - we will make you feel welcome from the very start.
