About

The fashion system is a complex and diverse field, divided into product categories where materials and technologies drive innovation. Success requires passion, hard work, curiosity and a willingness to learn. Developing specific language and methodology skills is essential to compete in the global fashion industry.

Overview

Fashion Communication and Marketing at Raffles Milano focuses on fashion, communication, branding and marketing, preparing students for the evolving fashion industry. 

Professional Opportunities

At the end of this three-year course, students will be able to face the profoundly changing scenario of the fashion system, applying roles capable of connecting creative skills with management skills. They could apply for new interdisciplinary roles linked to the research of eco-sustainable materials, communication, distribution and marketing such as trend forecaster, art director, press officer, image consultant, fashion blogger, fashion manager, fashion buyer, visual merchandiser.

Students seeking an MUR-recognised qualification may apply to an accredited AFAM programme leading to a First Level Academic Diploma in Fashion Design under Ministerial Decree No. 1216 of 31 August 2023.
