The Power of Learning: MYZIP & IED Istituto Europeo di Design

Since November 2024, MYZIP has partnered with the Istituto Europeo di Design (IED), Milan campus.
Students from all three academic years at the Pompeo Leoni location had the opportunity to attend a technical introductory lecture focused on the topic: “What is a zipper and how is it applied to different types of garments and design objects?”

This first meeting marks the beginning of a long-term, value-driven collaboration aimed at enriching the learning experience and bridging education with industry know-how.

IED is one of the most renowned institutions in the world of fashion and design education, a true ambassador of Italian creativity, talent and craftsmanship.

We’re proud to support their educational mission by donating high-quality materials -mainly regenerated and sustainable zippers and trims- to their school labs. These resources help students sharpen their tailoring and design skills while reducing environmental impact. MYZIP is also committed to supporting students’ final thesis projects, encouraging real-world experimentation and innovation.

We firmly believe in the power of learning as a two-way exchange that benefits all participants involved. That’s why we are honored to collaborate with IED on this inspiring and purpose-driven project.
