Luxury brand strategy and international marketing agency Issa PR has been appointed as the new agency of record for Istituto Marangoni London to handle their fashion PR and marketing. Their first campaign is to announce their patronage with the British Fashion Council and exclusive first debut into London Fashion Week. Since its launch into the world of fashion and education, Istituto Marangoni has helped to develop abilities, grow new talent, and offers the highest quality of education throughout all nine of its campuses and beyond. Their first graduate show in September showcased the craftsmanship and vision of their students on a global scale and highlighted their support of the British fashion industry at large. Issa PR will spearhead all PR and influencer work in the UK, including securing high-profile Ambassadors and mentors, helping to organise key events and driving buzz, and visibility for their 20th anniversary next year.
Istituto Marangoni London’s debut into Fashion Week took place at Victoria House in Bloomsbury Square. 10 of the best students selected by the school showcased six designs each under the theme “Sense Datum”, Latin for enriching and expanding the senses. Zahra Ahmed Husain, Ho Hong Chang, Noam Milly Anidjar Sussman, Shanie Bellanger, Fidan Akbarova, Arina Vartanova, Guia Dell’osso, Erin Kaya, Jessica Nozato and Hannah Trauger shared their dynamic designs at the inaugural show. With its growing international network in capitals of fashion and design, this milestone allowed talented prospects to build fruitful connections within the industry. Their fresh, new perspective also allowed the school to also update its educational offers according to global market trends and demands, but with fresh eyes and from first-hand observation and participation.
BFC Patrons play a key role in supporting them to deliver significant and impactful programmes that benefit the entire industry. This year, with the British Fashion Council’s mission to actively participate in a network to accelerate a successful circular fashion, this patronage will be beneficial to the wider fashion community. The BFC exists to empower and engage all within the British fashion industry to play their part to become an industry with purpose. Through championing diversity and building a strong network, patrons will help overcome adversity facing the British designer industry.
“Istituto Marangoni London is thrilled to select Issa PR to help launch as a patron of the British Fashion Council and at London Fashion Week. Issa PR was selected for their impressive work with clients all over the world, as for their extensive experience in fashion, responsible luxury and technology for initiatives with the Metaverse.
