Istituto Marangoni Miami to host annual fashion show, launches scholarship fund
Istituto Marangoni Miami (IMM) is set to present its Annual Fashion Show, Volare, on May 15 in the iconic Palm Court of the Miami Design District. Now in its second year, the event will showcase the final collections of IMM fashion design students and debut the new IMM x Miami Design District Scholarship Fund. 'This show is not just about the designs our students create but also about celebrating the boundless creativity and ambition they bring to the industry,' said Hakan Baykam, president of Istituto Marangoni Miami. 'Volare is a celebration of the future, where innovation, craftsmanship, and inspiration all take flight on the runway, marking an unforgettable night in Miami's fashion calendar.' As part of the event highlights, Supermodel Karolína Kurková, a member of IMM's Advisory Board and longtime supporter of the school, will walk in the show. Likewise, the experience will be elevated by a special live performance from the Miami Symphony Orchestra. All ticket proceeds will go directly into the new scholarship fund, which will cover full tuition for a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Fashion Design at IMM, awarded to a graduate from Design and Architecture Senior High (DASH). The scholarship application will open following the fashion show and will be available through the IMM website. 'Supporting this scholarship alongside Istituto Marangoni Miami is an investment in the future of fashion, creativity, and the cultural fabric of our city,' added Craig Robins, CEO and president of Dacra, a partner of The Miami Design District. 'Miami Design District has always been a place where culture, innovation, and talent come together, and supporting the next generation of designers through education is a natural extension of that vision.'
