Istituto Marangoni

History

The school was founded in Milan in 1935 by the tailor Giulio Marangoni, and became a Scuola Professionale Artistica or "professional art school" in 1942. At first the school trained mainly pattern makers and seamstresses; in the 1970s and 1980s it turned towards fashion design, product development and marketing.

A London branch was opened in a former textile factory at 30 Fashion Street, Spitalfields, in 2003, and a Paris branch opened in 2006. A branch in Via de' Tornabuoni in central Florence opened in 2016. In China, branches were opened in Shanghai in 2013, and in Shenzhen in 2016. In India, a Mumbai campus opened in July 2017. The first school in the United States opened in the Miami Design District in January 2018.Danielle Wightman-Stone (8 January 2018) Fashion United

In 2010, there were about 2200 students of 70 nationalities in three campuses.

In 2011, Career Education Corporation sold the Istituto Marangoni to Providence Equity Partners for a price estimated between 17 and 20 million dollars.

Accreditation

Since June 2016 the Istituto Marangoni has been listed by the Ministero dell'Istruzione, dell'Università e della Ricerca, the Italian ministry of education, among the institutions authorised to award diplomas in music, dance and arts.

In the UK, its BA and MA programmes are validated by the Manchester Metropolitan University, which also awards master's degrees at the Paris branch. A three-year fashion stylist course in Paris is approved by the Commission nationale de la certification professionnelle.

Alumni

Alumni of the school include Franco Moschino, Domenico Dolce (who left after four months, believing that the school had nothing to teach him), Alessandra Facchinetti, Anna Barroso, Paula Cademartori, Sandra Mansour, Julie de Libran, Rahul Mishra, Rafael Lopez, Alessandro Sartori, Princess Maria Carolina of Bourbon-Two Sicilies, and Princess Maria Chiara of Bourbon-Two Sicilies.
