From idea to material, from drawing to construction. Programmes spanning fashion, costume, accessories, menswear, knitwear and textile innovation, where design culture and technical expertise develop together.

Image

Fashion
as a System
Strategy, management, merchandising, sustainability and product development. Understand how an intuition becomes a collection, a positioning, a market proposition and a business.
The professional world within the programme
An ACM Industry Project is more than a collaboration with a brand.
It is an educational process that can involve fashion houses, manufacturers, archives and cultural institutions.
Every year students collaborate with different brands of the international fashion panorama working on authentic briefs, meeting company teams, responding to real reviews and constraints, and moving through every stage of development: research, concept, material selection, design, prototyping and final presentation.
In this way, they engage with the entire value chain.
Alumni
From education
to profession
Much more
than what you study
Since 1964, ACM has connected education, culture and industry. An ecosystem built over time through relationships with fashion houses, manufacturers, cultural institutions, professionals and alumni across the entire fashion and costume value chain.

Where ideas
take shape.
Ateliers and tailoring workshops, digital and CAD equipment, photography studios, Styling Labs, multimedia classrooms, a Fabric Library and the Fiamma Lanzara Library: ACM’s spaces support every stage of a project, from research to realisation.
They are more than facilities. They are places for work and experimentation, where students explore materials, techniques and tools, engage with professionals and develop their own practice.
