FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Lectra and Armani nurture young pattern-making talent
Lectra enhances the link between students' creativity and the fashion business
with award-winning competition at Italy's fashion school Istituto Secoli
Paris, July 11, 2017 - Lectra, the world leader in integrated technology
solutions dedicated to industries using fabrics, leather, technical textiles and
composite materials, ensures pattern-making students in Italy benefit from
cutting-edge technology and nurture key skills thanks to a recent competition
organized in co-operation with Armani at Istituto Secoli.
Lectra has developed partnerships with over 850 fashion schools across the
world, providing them with solutions and expertise to help the teachers prepare
students with the skills they require for the workplace. Working with leading
education partners, Lectra organises regular student competitions in association
with customers. The latest competition with Istituto Secoli, renowned for its
pattern-making savoir-faire, and organized with Armani, is a clear example of
industry and education working hand-in-hand to nurture young fashion designers.
Students at Istituto Secoli developed their collections using Lectra's
Modaris(®) and Diamino(® )solutions to create their patterns, prototypes and
markers. In addition, students from the master's program in menswear cut their
creations with Vector(®), Lectra's state-of-the-art fabric cutting solution.
Thanks to the trusted relationship that Lectra has with its customer G.A.
Operations of the Giorgio Armani group, one of the winning students, graduating
in menswear, has the opportunity to take up an internship in the collection
development department.
"We were very pleased with Lectra's initiative and were delighted to offer
educational internships at G.A. Operations. We chose the winning student for his
creative skills and for his training on Modaris and Diamino. This gives us the
important advantage of bringing somebody with proven technical skills into our
team," stated Giorgio Ferremi, industrial director G.A. Operations at Trento.
"The role of Lectra must increasingly be to promote and support dialogue between
fashion schools and companies," underlined Fabio Canali, managing director,
Lectra Italy. "We are delighted that Armani has accepted to support the fruitful
collaboration we have with Secoli, and help their students to develop their
professional skills."
