IED is the only fashion school in Spain selected to join The Circularity Master Class. An initiative by Zalando and the Graduate Fashion Foundation, which brings together the best European fashion design universities designed to introduce students to the fundamentals of circular fashion design.

The project kick-off took place on 25 September with second-year BA (Hons) in Fashion Design and third-year Bachelor of Arts in Fashion Design students at IED Barcelona. Over the course of five months, they will attend five online masterclasses addressing today’s key challenges in the fashion industry while exploring innovative processes related to circularity

At the end of the program, students will submit a 2D design proposal incorporating all their learnings, competing for the chance to win an invitation to the Graduate Fashion Week in London.
