Pattern Pattern

This workshop merges graphic design with garment-making, encouraging participants to transform two-dimensional compositions into three-dimensional wearable pieces. Using accessible materials like paper and cotton calico, participants explore pattern construction, focusing on color and dynamic design.

Reskill Upskill

This workshop helps fashion design participants balance technical skills with cross-disciplinary creativity. Through innovative materials and hybrid processes, they create flexible, transformable elements, refining their designs with live fittings.

The Studio Project

This workshop simulates a real-world design studio, where participants collaborate across disciplines—drawing, pattern making, and textile design—to create a cohesive fashion collection. Emphasizing teamwork, exploration, and hands-on experimentation, participants refine their designs through an iterative process with continuous feedback.

Creating Together

This workshop explores styling as a powerful social language. Participants learn how the creation of looks and images can facilitate social connection, express values, and foster collaboration. This hands-on experience emphasized styling as both a professional skill and a medium for storytelling, allowing participants to engage deeply in the process while raising awareness for social innovation projects. The workshop was organized in collaboration with Fondazione Sozzani, Milan. It was led by the stylists Milva Gigli, Annie Lerner, and Leonardo Persico, and by photographer and artist Alberto Maria Colombo.
