ESMOD Dubai

Ms. Hostal’s journey in fashion began with a personal passion for style and garment creation. “It is in my blood,” she says. “I have created many outfits for personal use, choosing unusual fabrics and launching new styles and signatures.” This lifelong love for fashion culminated in the establishment of ESMOD Dubai in 2006, alongside co-founder Denis Ravizza. As a branch of the renowned French fashion institute ESMOD, the Dubai campus offers a comprehensive three-year degree programme and an array of short courses tailored to various aspects of fashion, from design to production. ESMOD Dubai stands out as a hub for aspiring designers, not only due to its rigorous curriculum but also because it serves as a popular recruitment ground for the industry. The institution’s emphasis on blending creative and business skills ensures its graduates are well-equipped for success. “We integrate creative and business skills through our unique methodology,” Ms. Hostal explains. “Our programmes are designed to provide a strong foundation in fashion history, trends and the business side of the industry.”
