1966Year established

Program Overview

The Master's Degree in Craftsmanship in Contemporary Fashion is tailor-made to meet the growing demand for learning traditional craft techniques, adapting these skills, and applying them with new meaning in modern design.

In this nine-month course, you'll explore traditional craft techniques, processes, and skills whose continuity has been threatened by the passage of time. The focus is on “resignification,” combining innovative technologies and materials that define contemporary design today. You'll experiment with the aesthetic and expressive possibilities of modern craftwork, integrating its artistic value with functional solutions that address today's fashion needs.

You’ll take this newfound knowledge and develop your own personal brand and strategies to make your mark in the industry. Workshops, conferences, master classes, and career guidance during the course give you first-hand experience in the fashion sector.

Starting in October, this master’s course is designed for graduates in fashion and other design disciplines, as well as fine arts and architecture, who want to further their professional career, particularly in craftwork and the luxury market.
