Firenze The School of Fashion & Art

The place where you can find fashion, art and tradition

Known around the world for its art, Firenze needs no introduction, nevertheless under its exquisite façade the city also has another story to tell. Art, craftsmanship and made in Italy excellence are not concepts frozen in time, they evolve and grow, and in no place is that more evident than the Firenze School of Fashion and Art, where participants not only learn about the creation, practice, curation and promotion of art, and of fashion, but also the new languages in multimedia and artistic visual communication, exploring new cross-pollination in the fields of digital arts, media and new technologies. At the same time, participants will learn how to make the most of the wealth of materials and textiles this city has to offer, enhancing them with new concepts of craftsmanship and as inspiration in fashion design. Whether art & culture directly influence the design of luxury accessories and jewellery, provide the exclusive setting for fashion shows that debut the most talked about collections, or promote Italian sartorial tradition or innovation in Menswear, Istituto Marangoni Firenze School speaks to a truly contemporary audience.

Matilde Gori Wins the Prato Circular & Sustainability Award

The 32nd edition of International Lab of Mittelmoda – The Fashion Award brings a new achievement to Istituto Marangoni Firenze.

Among more than 630 applications from 65 countries, 24 talents were selected for the final, including student Matilde Gori and alumna Giulia Lin, both from Istituto Marangoni Firenze.

Standing out among the finalists was Matilde Gori, who won the Prato Circular & Sustainability Award, a recognition promoted by Confindustria Toscana Nord and dedicated to the themes of sustainability and circularity in fashion.

Her collection stems from a research process that combines knitwear, material experimentation, and Prato’s textile heritage. At the heart of the project is a reference to the cenciaioli of Prato, the historical figures of the district who specialised in sorting discarded garments and textile scraps destined to be recovered and reintroduced into the production cycle. A tradition that has helped shape a culture deeply rooted in textile regeneration.

Through this reference, Matilde Gori brings a territory-based heritage into the present, interpreting it through her own design language and knitwear research. Her creative journey is characterised by a particular interest in knitwear and in the expressive possibilities of yarns and materials.

Winning the Prato Circular & Sustainability Award marks an important milestone for Matilde Gori and represents another international recognition for the emerging talent of Istituto Marangoni Firenze.

Istituto Marangoni Firenze 10th Anniversary

Istituto Marangoni Firenze celebrates its 10th Anniversary with MĪRĀBĬLIS • The Exhibition, bringing together student projects, creative research and Alumni stories. On November 7th, prospective students will have the opportunity to discover the exhibition as part of the Special Open Day.

Ten years after the opening of the School of Florence, Istituto Marangoni Firenze celebrates a milestone that offers an opportunity not only to look back at the journey so far, but also to explore the creative identity the School has built over its first decade and look towards the future. A journey shaped by an increasingly interdisciplinary dialogue between fashion, art and business, and by a strong connection with Florence’s creative and manufacturing heritage.

The celebrations began in July with MĪRĀBĬLIS • The Fashion Show held at Palazzo Corsini, where eight graduate designers presented their collections. Conceived as the first chapter of a broader programme dedicated to the 10th Anniversary, the Fashion Show explored the theme of perception and the boundary between reality and representation.

This narrative continues with MĪRĀBĬLIS • The Exhibition, a project conceived to tell the story of the School’s evolution through the talent of its students, the journeys of its Alumni and the different academic disciplines that shape the Istituto Marangoni Firenze experience. At its heart is a selection of projects offering a cross-disciplinary perspective on the School’s creative research and multidisciplinary approach.

A Journey Through the Different Creative Disciplines of the School

Developed throughout the School’s spaces, the exhibition brings together projects from Fashion Design, Fashion Business, Fashion Communication & Image, Multimedia Art and Art Curating transforming the School into a journey through different creative languages, disciplines and perspectives.

All the different creative areas come together within a single narrative, offering an insight into the creative ecosystem that defines the School and the value of exchange across disciplines.

Completing the journey is a dedicated focus on Alumni through TEN X TEN, a video installation created to highlight the value and impact of the educational experience through the journeys and achievements of former students. Their stories become part of the narrative of the School’s first decade, creating a bridge between education and professional life.

November 7th: A Special Open Day

The story will continue on November 7th, when MĪRĀBĬLIS • The Exhibition will become an integral part of Istituto Marangoni Firenze’s Special Open Day.

Prospective students will have the opportunity to visit the School and discover a selection of projects through an immersive journey, experiencing first-hand the creative process, academic experience and multidisciplinary culture that define Istituto Marangoni Firenze. The experience will go beyond simply presenting the academic offer, allowing visitors to discover what students create and experience throughout their studies in Florence.

In this way, the celebration of the first ten years also becomes an opportunity to look ahead. MĪRĀBĬLIS • The Exhibition tells the story of Istituto Marangoni Firenze through the ideas, projects and people who have shaped its identity, turning the 10th Anniversary into a new starting point.
