“Digital transformation is one of the key asset of Istituto Marangoni’s strategy for the next years. House of Istituto Marangoni is the first of a series of initiatives to move forward in this direction. It was conceived before the Covid emergency and today it is a pivotal project to offer a global visibility to the most valuable students’ projects” states Stefania Valenti, Managing Director at Istituto Marangoni. “Innovative and user friendly, it’s a showcase to involve stakeholders of fashion, art and design, to share the visions of contemporary creatives, a real “think thank” from where Istituto Marangoni’s students launch a strong message for a new start, with their unique style, spontaneous expression of Generation Z”.

Graduates from fashion (Fashion Design, Fashion Business and Fashion Styling), art and design courses will have the unique chance to give visibility to their projects, with a particular focus on the best designers’ fashion shows of each school.

Moreover, through the platform, the students will benefit from professional advices to review their portfolio and CV.
