Masters program - 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.
