Istituto Marangoni Paris

Do you have a passion for fashion and a love of travel? Then this invitation to enjoy an exclusive visit to the Parisian school of the Istituto Marangoni in Spring 2019 is for you.

The internationally renowned Istituto Marangoni was founded in Milan and now operates campuses in the fashion capitals of Paris, London and Shanghai.

You will enjoy a behind-the-scenes tour with a fascinating presentation about the Istituto’s history and heritage. Istituto Maragoni – or L’école De Mode to give it its French title - has an English teaching staff made up of practising names in fashion and design and you will attend a workshop with one of the School's teachers.

Situated in the 8th arrondissement, Paris' chicest neighbourhood, defined by the broad Avenue des Champs Elysées which links the iconic Arc de Triomphe and Place de la Concorde, L’école De Mode is walking distance from the famous fashion houses on Faubourg Saint-Honoré. Named after the millers' patron saint, this is one of the most luxurious and fashionable streets in the world and even the most experienced fashionistas will be thrilled at this chance to visit the flagship stores of virtually every major global fashion brand. ​
