The Three-Year course in Fashion Styling & Communication at Accademia del Lusso shapes a well-rounded professional who is specialised in visual and communication strategies for fashion. The curriculum covers the fundamental aspects of fashion styling interpreted as a brand's appearance in all its forms, and deals with the vast world of fashion publishing from a communication point of view. The course provides students with all of the necessary skills to become professional stylists; capable of analysing and discovering new trends, working alongside designers and brand managers, and interpreting and defining the mood of a collection for photo shoots, fashion shows, promotional activities and events. The fashion communication part of the course allows students to understand in detail the main activities within a press office, with particular attention paid to planning advertising campaigns, interviews, and press releases. Furthermore, students will complete project work which is purposefully designed to allow them to apply everything they learn through practice, under the guidance of Accademia del Lusso's expert teachers. Three-year courses at Accademia del Lusso are validated by E.A.B.H.E.S.
