Master in Responsible Fashion Design

IED - Istituto Europeo di Design is the largest Higher Education Network in the creative fields that has maintained a global outlook with a deeply rooted Italian cultural matrix since 1966. Today, it has 11 locations across 3 countries: Italy, Spain, and Brazil. The broad educational offering includes over 300 programs, ranging from Undergraduate to Postgraduate courses, as well as Lifelong Learning and Preparatory courses, focusing on Design, Fashion, Communication, and Visual Arts.

IED’s educational approach is based on a simple yet effective model: the combination of theory with practice, enriched by the expertise of professionals from the industry who bring their knowledge directly into the classroom. Additionally, students are challenged with real briefs and projects thanks to strong partnerships with leading companies and agencies built over the years.

IED is an inclusive, transdisciplinary school that uses design as a universal language for change, encouraging its students to shape the world through the power of their ideas.

With the aim of promoting responsible and sustainable fashion, this course explores the project design skills involved in creating fashion collections, adopting a critical approach to the concepts of design, production, distribution, communication, and disposal methods. The course offers an interdisciplinary approach to developing sustainable projects by creating zero-waste models and experimenting with new materials.
