Istituto di Moda Burgo was founded in 1961 by the current director Fernando Burgo. For 60 years, our goal has been to provide students with the tools to develop their creativity and aspirations, bringing our passion for work and our unique method all around the world, for an increasingly international approach. The main goal is to train highly competent professional figures, who are able to enter the world of work immediately: great attention is given to the training and updating courses of teachers and to collaborations with high-profile brands during the academic course. The preparation for the world of work is guaranteed by the almost exclusively practical lessons and the individual teaching method: each student is thus able to make the most of each lesson, thanks to personalized programs.
In a series of exciting short videos, three talented Burgo Fashion Institute students-Mirna, Carlotta, and Randy-shared their creations, their sketches, and their unstoppable passion for Fashion.
Each student presented a unique style, reflecting their artistic influences and visions. Mirna charmed with her classic elegance, Carlotta amazed with a bold modern twist, while Randy captivated with his innovative and out-of-the-box approach.
Despite their stylistic differences, what unites Mirna, Carlotta, and Randy is a deep and common passion for fashion. This passion is evident in their work, in the careful details of the sketches and in the dedication with which they talk about their creations thus representing an inspiration to anyone who dreams of pursuing a career in Fashion.
The theme chosen for the projects of the Burgo Fashion Institute for this year’s Fashion Graduate, is Adam and Eve.
The image of Adam and Eve has gone through the millennia as a symbol of innocence, nature and rebellion. But how would our early ancestors dress if they lived today, in a world dominated by fashion, technology and consumerism?
Adam and Eve, and the fantastical scenery around them, would surely make an appearance in today’s high fashion with garments that go from simple natural cover-ups to key designer pieces.
Eve, the Goddess of the modern earth, with her natural allure, would wear sheer fabrics that allow a glimpse of her femininity in a triumph of embroidery inspired by the flora and fauna of the Garden of Eden, without neglecting the fluidity and harmoniousness given by falling fabrics.
Eve’s dual nature, the more provocative and more urban one, would instead allow herself to be wrapped up by the tempting snake in dark and shiny blue materials.
Adam, on the other hand, might opt for a more refined and structured look, with a tailored jacket and pants, made by skilled hands and vivid images depicting the beauty and purity of nature.
In this journey from Genesis to our era, our biblical progenitors would represent an aesthetic that cries out for rebirth and a return to the origins, in a harmonious reunion with nature.
