Margrethe-Skolen arranges a study tour to Paris in the first year of the course to give the students insight into the Mecca of culture and fashion.  The school intends, by visiting the textile fair Premier Vision, to facilitate a deeper understanding of how a collection is formed in the professional milieu. There will also be admission to the Couture Salon of one of the known fashion houses of Haute Couture, the great textile sales and the ingenious accessory shops, current exhibitions, galleries, trendy fashion boutiques, markets etc.

Our guide has much experience in Parisien life and curiosities, as she herself has lived there for a number of years and worked as a chief designer in the big fashion houses. She has great insight, knowledge and understanding of the structure and operation of a fashion house and is closely acquainted with the production process of Prêt à Porter and Haute Couture. The excursion to Paris aims to give the student experiences, inspiration and insight, which will be exploited on our return to Copenhagen in a project on fashion, trends, concept and collection.
