On 4 June 2026, the Fondazione Sozzani in Milan hosted the Fashion Show of the Master in Creative Knitwear Design, developed in collaboration with Modateca Deanna.

Accademia Costume & Moda and Modateca Deanna celebrate the talent of a new generation of designers and the value of collaborations that make possible an educational journey deeply connected to the excellence of Made in Italy.
