Only in recent years has the profession of Fashion Stylist gained recognition: once known only to insiders, it has now emerged as a key figure working alongside designers and photographers, behind editorial shoots and successful campaigns, advertisements, videos, and special looks.

The Fashion Stylist does not create clothes but selects and combines them to shape the identity of a brand, a photograph, or an individual, telling a story through evocative images that captivate attention.

Fashion Stylists work in a collective dimension involving designers, photographers, hair and makeup artists, press offices, and showrooms. Through collaboration, they must define a style with creativity, the ability to interpret clients’ missions, iconographic and fashion culture, media knowledge, photography expertise, and coordination skills.

This interdisciplinary role offers numerous applications: lookbooks and fashion and beauty collection presentations, brand restyling, editorials, content creation, advertising, video production, cinema and TV, e-commerce, web communication, event looks, image making, and even retail apparel assistance, supporting window display creation or more personalized and rewarding shopping experiences for clients.

With IAAD.’s Professional Course in Fashion Styling, seize the opportunity to learn how to communicate your passion for fashion!

Who is it for?

The course is aimed at graduates and degree holders who wish to explore Fashion Styling in both its cultural and operational aspects related to the world of clothing, fashion, and publishing. It is also intended for professionals already working in the field, such as style offices, textile and apparel companies, commercial showrooms, or retail businesses, who may find valuable support in communicating their products.

Lastly, it is also designed for content creators, individuals active in communication, and enthusiasts who wish to express their aesthetic through media or personal projects.
