The jury will evaluate the candidates in consideration of the following criteria: the level of creativity demonstrated by the designer, originality and innovation of the project, technical feasibility in the application of the design to textiles, choice of materials and design of materials. Proud of the success of Giulia Del Signore, the head of the Fashion design department, Ilenia Alesse underlines the success of another of her students, Francesca Camilleri, who made it to the semi-finals.
