– Final Project
Founded in Florence in 2011, SUPERDUPER grew out of a period of creative experimentation and a strong desire to make. This opened us up to a new territory waiting to be re-discovered – the world of hats.
Within two years, the company was gaining industry recognition for our fresh take on an artisanal heritage. In 2013, the brand won the Who is on Next? Award in the Men’s category, with a special mention in the Women’s category. Today, SUPERDUPER has matured into a global brand that can be found around the world.
From their creative studio and workshop at Manifattura Tabacchi, SUPERDUPER challenges the standard operating model of fashion e-commerce. The signature method allows them to make all online purchases to order, reducing waste and excess inventory while maintaining the highest quality. The internal production means that they can make a hat in 72 hours, transforming the finest raw materials in the hands of a team of young artisans.
FINAL PROJECT
The final project of each student will be the common thread of the course and will lead the students to acquire the skills and the knowledge to put their ideas into practice. Students will be encouraged to think and develop the essential elements of their own design identity.
Students will conceive, design and create their own capsule collection, starting to define their personal aesthetic vision while commencing to think about possible brand building strategies
CAREER
The skills and vision acquired during the course give students the opportunity to start or enrich a professional career as:
-Hatmakers
-Product Developers
-Accessory Designers
-Technical Consultants
-Fashion Entrepreneurs
