Istituto Modartech is taking part in Fashion Graduate Italia, the event promoted by Piattaforma Sistema Formativo Moda ETS dedicated to supporting young talent and promoting fashion education in Italy.
The 2026 edition, taking place in Milan from 27 to 29 October, is themed “Speak UP”: an invitation to a new generation of designers to take a stand, turning the complexities of the present into new forms of expression and dialogue. A theme that finds a natural interpretation in the projects developed by students of the Fashion Design degree course, through research, experimentation and a personal approach to fashion.
During the three days of Fashion Graduate Italia, Modartech talents will have the opportunity to present their collections and engage with students and professionals from schools, academies and universities in Italy and abroad. The Institute will take part in fashion shows, exhibitions and portfolio reviews, creating opportunities to meet and exchange ideas with industry professionals and fashion enthusiasts.
A dedicated booth will showcase a selection of student projects, while two online workshops will take place in the week leading up to the event. The participation will also include the Making Of social project, featured on Instagram, and the digital Portfolio Hub, an online showcase dedicated to the work of the young designers.
