The fashion system is constantly evolving: it becomes an increasingly complex world in which it is unthinkable to think of entering without solid preparation behind it. If in fact, it is true that some great fashions have studied anything else (take Armani and his studies in Medicine or Balestra who studied Civil Engineering), nowadays the figures that move the industry are increasingly highly qualified and specialized.
If your dream is to make a career in fashion, then, you will have to combine your talent with high-level training in one of the best fashion schools in Italy. But which one to choose?
What are the best fashion schools in Italy?
Inquiring online or from friends and acquaintances you will surely find discordant opinions: there are those who think in one way and those in another and, from time to time, the fashion schools that are suggested to you are always different. At that point you may find yourself more confused than before, unable to make a decision.
To choose among the best fashion schools in Italy, ask yourself 3 basic questions:
– What subjects can I specialize in at this school?
– In what kind of context will I move?
– What will be my prospects?
Each of these questions, in fact, includes fundamental points to consider when choosing a fashion school: they are points that will allow you, in an objective way, to really find the right path for you, your future, and your career.
1. Look at the training offer
Knowing in which subjects you can specialize allows you to understand the variety and quality of the educational offer of a school: an essential aspect that must ensure that you can count on a broad educational plan that includes what you feel most in your ropes, always in the fashion field.
Be careful, though. It is not a question of choosing a school that “does a bit of everything”: on the contrary, the school you choose must be vertically specialized in fashion. Rather, it will be important that the courses offered, while still related to the fashion world, touch different facets, deepening various perspectives.
2. Be inspired by an international context
It’s true, in Italy we have names of excellence for what concerns fashion. However, in an interconnected and globalized world like ours, you can’t just stay within your borders. That’s why you have to choose a school that allows you to get in touch with different cultures, languages, trends, and mentalities, from all over the world.
An international context will make you grow and stimulate your creativity, allowing you to enrich your wealth of experiences not only academic and professional but also personal.
3. Consider your future prospects
Many of the best fashion schools in Italy manage to give you very good theoretical training. Despite this, what is missing is very often a practical part, directly carried out in the field. Being able to “touch” what work in the fashion industry really is, with all its peculiarities, which cannot be studied with any manual.
For this reason, look for a fashion school that allows you to gain experience already during your studies through a curricular internship: in this way, you can be sure of being able to put into practice everything you have learned so far, so as to improve and grow.
