Fashion Revolution is a global movement that aims to promote transparency, sustainability, and ethical practices in the fashion industry. It was founded in response to the Rana Plaza factory collapse in Bangladesh in 2013, which claimed the lives of 1,138 garment workers.
Fashion Revolution seeks to raise awareness about the social and environmental impact of fashion production and consumption, and advocates for a more responsible and sustainable fashion industry. The movement encourages consumers to ask “Who Made My Clothes?” and to demand transparency and accountability from fashion brands and retailers.
Fashion Revolution also works with fashion industry stakeholders, including designers, manufacturers, policymakers, and NGOs, to promote sustainable and ethical practices in fashion production. The movement provides resources and tools to help industry stakeholders improve their sustainability and social responsibility practices.
The final project consists in the realization of a capsule collection: design of the collection, moodboard, choice of materials and colors, trend analysis, technical and artistic drawing.
This will be the common thread of the course and will lead you to acquire the skills and the knowledge to put your ideas into practice. You will be encouraged to think and develop the essential elements of your own design identity, starting to define your personal aesthetic vision while commencing to think about possible brand building strategies.
The skills and vision acquired during the course give students the opportunity to start or enrich a professional career as:
-Product Developers
-Fashion Designers
-Technical Consultants
-Fashion Entrepreneurs
-Pattern Makers
