IFA Paris' ambition to intertwine heritage and innovation
In this first official episode of the Applied Series where we talk to featured fashion industry professionals on the book Fashion Tech Applied, Jean-Baptiste Andreani, group CEO of IFA Paris, takes us through how French fashion heritage is being transformed by technology. We discuss how the school based in Paris, born from a love story in 1982, recognised the need to integrate more forward-thinking innovation subjects into their courses, and how global fashion education is embracing teaching new-age skills with traditional ones.
Integrating tech and innovation into fashion education
Jean-Baptiste takes us through how the next wave of creatives is being armed with the arsenal of a tech lab – think body scanners, fabric scanners, and 3D printers, all integral to learning by doing. We confront the cultural resistance to change, particularly in France, and shine a light on the exciting possibilities that await when tech-savvy graduates infuse traditional fashion settings with fresh ideas. This episode is a must-listen for fashion students, students-to-be, and any professional in academia.
