Fashion Styling & Creative Direction
Bachelor's degree (180 CFA equivalent to 180 ECTS credits) recognized by the Ministry of University and Research
The Bachelor Degree course in Fashion Styling & Creative Direction (recognized by Italian Ministry of University and Research) encourages students to create their own visual culture (i.e. to develop an aesthetic sense and artistic direction), which can then be applied to any professional project in which they will be involved.
The three-year Bachelor Degree Course mixes traditional media with digital tools. This course is the translation of fashion language into multimedia: students receive a 360-degree view of a certain aesthetic and narrative with graphic languages typical of the sector.
Upon completion of the Course, students are trained to be able to design and produce photo shoots (commercial and editorial), advertising campaigns, fashion films, fashion magazines starting from the conception of the creative idea to its realisation , and will thus be able to coordinate production teams.
During the academic path at Istituto Marangoni, the student experiences the production phases and a research methodology that he/she will later find in the working world. The research folder and the technical book can be considered as the real learning tools.
Figures such as the Fashion Stylist, the Photographer, the Art Director, and the Fashion Editor are fashion professionals who, during their academic training, have learnt the taste and design narrative and visual languages of fashion brands and media.
Once in the working world, this experienced figure will then be able to market any campaign.
This professional figure is required to have an all-round preparation in the cultural field, and can therefore be defined as a ‘director of images’, working in the artistic direction of a fashion film rather than for a fashion show.
In Milan, students can explore an environment rich in professional opportunities. The city offers a vibrant styling scene, with numerous publishing houses, photographic studios and fashion casting for models.
Milan, along with cities such as London and New York, is a creative hub for photographers and fashion stylists, offering unique networking and working opportunities with Industry top brands even during the students' academic experience.
