Master in Fashion Craftsmanship - Madrid

The Master's Degree in Craftsmanship in Contemporary Fashion at IED is built for designers who want to master time-honored skills and reframe them for the demands of modern fashion. The program focuses on resignification: taking techniques like embroidery, carding, knitting, fabric manipulation, and craft printing, and giving them new meaning through innovative materials, contemporary aesthetics, and the latest design technologies.

The curriculum moves from technical mastery to creative and professional development. Students learn to push the limits of each traditional technique, apply experimental workflows, and define a personal visual identity. The program also covers brand-building strategies, equipping graduates to launch their own label or collaborate with established fashion houses. Workshops, masterclasses, conferences, and career guidance provide ongoing exposure to the fashion industry. Graduates are prepared for roles in fashion design, haute couture, accessories, product design, and luxury textile craftsmanship.
