Introduction
Fashion is dynamic and in perpetual flux, and it evolves with social, cultural, economic, and technological shifts to adapt to the ever-changing needs of its consumers. Current and future managers must be able to detect and predict these global macro-trends. They need to create and implement imaginative solutions to succeed in this transitional world of fashion.
The Master in Fashion Management combines fashion studies with management principles covering aspects of buying, merchandising, communication, marketing, distribution, and production. Students are introduced to the language and the codes of the fashion world. They are guided to formulate and execute relevant research-based analysis-allowed projects, evaluate and make informed decisions to arrive at creative and commercially viable strategies coherent with the brand identity. Students are given the opportunity to pitch their innovative proposals in written and visual formats.

The UK validation gives students more international recognition of their course of study and the opportunity to obtain a Master of Arts Degree (90 ECTS) awarded by Regent’s University London that allows them access to most international doctoral programs.
Within their academic year, students enrolled in the Double Award Master’s Programme, have the opportunity to spend a week at Regent’s University London for a London study trip experience, with special teaching activities and visits to the most significant sites for creative trends. During their stay, students will have the opportunity to take part in tours to discover London’s most iconic places, museums and galleries. The one-week London study trip is not part of the Academic curriculum and, therefore not mandatory. It is subject to additional costs covering both the cultural offer and the trip.
