Marco Piazzi – Pollini General Manager - states:
"The accessories field has evolved considerably over the course of the years, therefore an exchange of knowledge and skills with the new generations is crucial. We are certain that the collaboration with Istituto Marangoni can be strategic in order to discover and cultivate new talents who know how to reinterpret Pollini's codes and support the stylistic evolution that the brand has been undertaking now for several seasons".
Paolo Meroni – Director of Education of Istituto Marangoni - asserts:
"Accessories is the category that is making an increasingly important impact on the fashion business. The collaboration with Pollini allows us to continue our intent in creating connections between creativity and business, while training managerial figures and highly specialized and sought-after designers".
