A selection of the best fashion collections from IED Barcelona’s Class of 2026 will take to the runway at the Palau Reial de Pedralbes on 15 June at 7 pm in an event included in the programme celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Istituto Europeo di Design.
The “Fashioners of the World” Final Fashion Show will reach its 22nd edition, presenting 25 vibrant proposals by students from the Bachelor of Arts in Fashion Design and the BA (Hons) in Fashion Design to specialised media and industry experts. Meticulously crafted, the garments will deliver a visual and creative spectacle, combining technological innovation, heritage and crafts, inclusion and sustainability in a tangible demonstration of the outstanding educational level achieved by students at the IED Fashion School.
At the end of the show, an international jury made up of renowned industry figures will reveal the winning collections of the “Fashioners of the World” Awards.

For the third consecutive year, “Fashioners of the World” will feature its own perfume, created exclusively by MANE, the leading French group and one of the world leaders in the fragrance and flavour industry. In collaboration with Fashion students from IED Barcelona and IED Milano, MANE has also co-created four additional perfumes for four looks that will be showcased during the event alongside a small photographic display presenting the advertising campaign proposal for each fragrance.
Attendees will also be able to enjoy an exhibition of portfolios by students from the BA in Fashion Design, Fashion Styling and the BA (Hons) in Fashion Design.
