Mentored by Antonio Maurizio Grioli, Dean, School of Fashion and faculty members, the students curated ‘Fashion Reboot’- a collection of ensembles they designed to reflect the fierce expressions and youthful essence that are signature to the Gen Z.
As part of this on-going collaboration, Pearl Academy students get up, close and personal access to the vast knowledge and experience of fashion veterans at FDCI. The students receive continuous opportunities to interact and learn from them through masterclasses, live industry projects, internships and fashion forecasting immersions. The two organizations are also exploring online courses and inclusion of digital aspects of fashion as digital-first has become the new normal.
