Sartorial Summer Courses in Milan

All roads may lead to Rome, but when it comes to fashion business, Milan is no second city. The NABA Introduction to Fashion Design summer course gives aspiring fashion designers, or just people who love fashion (with no age limit), the chance to experience an enjoyable two weeks creating a mini-collection from the first ideas to the final presentation and all that that involves.



An intense two weeks starting with research on a fashionable theme, then putting down ideas, playing with images, and developing them, making mood boards, creating a fun fashion item and producing a portfolio of finished designs that students can then take with them if they then wish to apply for further studies on diploma courses.

Each student is encouraged, and shown how to, express their ideas to the maximum. Meanwhile, talks will be given on the fashion system as well as cultural background and input lectures on the chosen theme.



There will also be explorations of Milan’s glamorous fashion, and ‘alternative’ fashion, zones and important design stores; as Milan offers the best design and fashion outlets in the world.
