Develop skills and knowledge in sustainable fashion creation, combining traditional design with new technologies or digital design, while emphasizing the importance of the circular economy in the fashion industry
The Master's Degree in Fashion Design provides you with the knowledge to develop collections with a unique identity, using innovative and sustainable methodologies.
A key strength of the program is its emphasis on construction techniques that blend craftsmanship with computer-aided design (CAD, CLO), digital prototyping, and emerging production systems. It also includes trend research through big data analysis and the use of artificial intelligence tools, exploring emerging production systems and cutting-edge technologies like augmented reality and 3D printing.
The program will also equip you with tools to understand ethics and social responsibility in fashion, promoting sustainable business models and inclusive approaches that celebrate diversity and accessibility within the industry. Additionally, you will learn to challenge conventional beauty standards and design garments that are accessible and empathetic to all people, transforming contemporary fashion into a more inclusive and enriching space.
This programme is taught at IED Gran Vía - Palacio de Altamira.
