Methodology and structure.
The IED Master in Fashion Trend Forecasting is founded on a theoretical-cultural approach that integrates qualitative and quantitative research techniques, allowing students to deepen their understanding of the fashion industry, its links to related creative fields, market demand, and consumption habits.
Students will learn to effectively express their ideas and communicate their research findings, creating convincing and visually compelling presentations capable of directing important business decisions in a sector with increasingly complex dynamics.
The course’s final project will see students developing a professional trend book for a real partner company using their acquired analytical and perceptual skills to satisfy the assigned brief.
