Paris

Students of the Bachelor's Degree course in Fashion Communication & Image at the school in Paris had the unique opportunity to collaborate with the iconic fashion house Schiaparelli as part of an industry project for Term 1.

THE PROJECT

Students were challenged to reimagine the Schiaparelli Ready-to-Wear fashion show set at the prestigious Palais d’Iéna. Working individually, each student developed a comprehensive Fashion Show Production Dossier, enriched with 3D videos, showcasing their creative vision, technical skills, and understanding of brand identity.

The project culminated in a final presentation at the school, attended by Francesco Pastors, Head of Heritage and Culture at Schiaparelli, who came to meet the students and review their work. During the session, Francesco engaged in in-depth discussions with the students, exploring their inspirations, creative processes, and conceptual approaches. He also provided professional, constructive, and inspiring feedback, offering valuable insights into the expectations and realities of the luxury fashion industry.

The top three projects were awarded to:

• Nathalia Cerda
• Ariahna Leon
• Linda El Gamal

This collaboration offered students a rare opportunity to work closely with a major fashion house, bridging academic learning with real-world industry practice. It reinforced the programme’s focus on creative direction, storytelling, and professional readiness, while encouraging students to push the boundaries of contemporary fashion presentation.
