Can structure melt? The corset has shaped Elias Matso's design research from the beginning, and in Melt with Me, his final collection, the Fashion Design graduate lets it lose its rigidity, creating garments the wearer seems to pour into. Texture becomes a way to talk about time and the changing body.

From The Artisanal Revolution to The Age of Intelligence, Vogue World Milano told the story of fashion's evolution, robots on the runway included.
Fashion Business undergraduate Riccardo Rinaldi, who helped in the preparation of the event alongside fellow Polimoda students, reflects on it from a fashion student's perspective. His takeaway: the future of fashion was not only on the catwalk, but in the students and assistants who supported it, a true demonstration of the next generation of fashion, designers, marketers, managers, and more.
Celebration of evolution or replacement of the human touch? Tell us what you think in the comments.

Creative Horizons returned with a new collaboration between Pomellato and Polimoda.
Undergraduate students in Fashion Styling and Fashion Art Direction developed four original creative directions for the brand's Nudo and Iconica collections, translating Pomellato's identity into campaigns and retail concepts inspired by color, transparency, equestrian heritage, and Milan's aperitivo culture.
Presented at Pomellato's Florence boutique, the projects demonstrate how students work on real creative briefs while engaging directly with leading fashion brands.

Dennis Vanderbroek, founder of SDV and the spatial designer behind Rosalía's Lux Tour, joined Polimoda for the second year running for a session with Fashion Styling and Fashion Art Direction students. Working from artistic references ranging from Wolfgang Tillmans to Anne Imhof, students were challenged to design a space for a fashion brand and translate art history into a contemporary visual language.
We sat down with Vanderbroek to talk about his practice, interdisciplinarity, and what makes the most daring work in fashion. For Studio Dennis Vanderbroeck, design is not a service. It is an artistic practice rooted in research, storytelling and a deep commitment to concept.
Fernanda Castro, a Polimoda alumna, also brought her work to the Lux Tour, designing one of the looks that has captured the world's attention.

Franc D'Ambrosio came to Florence for one night only, and Polimoda was there.
The American actor and singer, known worldwide for playing the Phantom of the Opera on Broadway more than 2,200 times and for his role as Anthony Corleone in Francis Ford Coppola's Godfather III, brought his one-man show to Teatro Niccolini, Florence's oldest theatre. The evening moved between Broadway, opera, Italian classics, and personal memory, with D'Ambrosio speaking about his childhood in the Bronx, the mentors who shaped him including Luciano Pavarotti and Placido Domingo, and the mother he introduced from the stage, seated in the front row.
Fashion Art Direction students Mariia Chukhrai and Gianluigi Di Maria had backstage access before the curtain rose and spoke with him after the performance. The conversation turned to identity, vulnerability, and a question few people are positioned to answer: what happens when you play the same role for over two decades?

Each year, Polimoda dedicates a full week to one goal: connecting students with the fashion and luxury industry.
Business Week is not a career fair. It is a week of real interviews, real feedback, and real conversations between students and the companies they want to work for. This year, students in the final stages of their undergraduate and master programs took part, meeting companies from Italy and abroad across online and in-person sessions.
Alongside the interviews, Blind Date sessions gave students the chance to present their portfolios directly to professionals and receive honest feedback on their work.
What students leave with is not just a list of contacts. It is a clearer sense of where they are headed and what it will take to get there.
