From October 28th to 30th, Fashion Graduate Italia 2025 took place at BASE Milano, the event that annually spotlights young fashion talents and the schools shaping their future. An event open to the city and dedicated to celebrating the creative force of new generations, promoted by Piattaforma Sistema Formativo Moda ETS and dedicated this year to the theme Bridging Tribes, Building Dreams – an invitation to build bridges between different cultures, visions, and identities through the universal language of fashion.
Among the protagonists was Istituto Secoli, which brought to the runway and discussion forums its contribution of methodology, expertise, and experimentation – values that have always distinguished its history and find full expression in the creativity of its students.
In this edition of Fashion Graduate Italia, the Institute participated with a program rich in activities: from the digital lecture “Knitwear 101: Thinking in Reverse”, where instructors Michele Fumagalli and Alice Molteni guided a vast audience in discovering the dialogue between fully-fashioned knitwear and traditional tailoring, to the presence of the Booth Secoli, transformed for the occasion into a point of dialogue between education, research, and industry on the value of technical training.

On display were two outfits created by students Cinzia Carecchio and Jocelyne Copelli from the Three-Year Course in Fashion Design and Fashion Product Technologies, inspired by the Perturbante collection, developed in collaboration with Candiani, an international reference for sustainable denim, and Lectra, a leader in digital design technologies.

On October 29th, it was time for the Designers to Watch – Secoli’s best talents, called to showcase their collections on the runway: seven young designers, seven fashion visions, for a fashion show that combined creativity, research, and expressive freedom.
