First thing first, the course covers topic that are really interesting and useful to people like me that are completely new to the fashion industry, and topics are all well connected and i can suggest it to everyone who is a beginner for sure! Now the worst part is, the english level its absolutely crap (i'm italian btw) and makes a 4 min video a long long repeat and pause every time. I've done already 3 other courses here and this was the most complicated one to follow, and the fact that i know how italians talk and "move" helped a bit, but in all honesty i would rather have a native english speaker doing all the videos than see this painful low level especially because this should be one of the best Unis in Italy. One more thing that bothers me its that the last test its based on a 200 pages reports that, if you are a beginner i'm not sure you are able to read nor understand,they could have done 2 more videos and explained better what they really wanted. so i dont feel this course deserves more than 3 stars, i expected way more from such Uni, both from english level and tests complexity (due to the english level still)

I think the course offers a great view into the world of management of fashion and luxury companies but it needs to be updated for the time we are in now. As we are living in 2020 (today) I could see what has changed since the time the course was created, and there is quite a lot so I think that freshening up of the course would be needed. But nevertheless a great starting point, I finished fashion college and I missed on almost all the information there, that I got here in this course so I still think it is quite amazing to get all that information so condensed in such a short time.

The course content of this course is not much and thus one can finish it rather very quickly. However one of the lecturer's had such a heavy accent I had to use subtitles just to understand the content. I am not in anyway in the fashion industry nor aspiring to be so this was just like a "tester" for me. I was however surprised that its not all about modelling and the sorts but incorporates some business aspect about the fashion industry.

Its a very thoughtfully curated course. Also the contents is very precise. The only problem I felt, is with the speakers of the course. Didn't sound very enthusiastic and prepared to deliver the content. Hence the couse wasn't very engaging. I had to read the whole video content by myself to understand it because the energy of the speaker was quite low and hence it became a bit lengtly and not very interesting.

The contents are very good and the topics, information and examples are modern and contemporary. My only complain would be the structure of the modules and the tests. This course contains a lot of information and quizes tend to be merged, thus you end up taking a test of about 15-20 questions and need to be looking back constantly to be sure of your answer. Also, multiple answer questions tend to be capacious.

Great course with video, slides, interview and a lot of interesting contents. Unfortunately all the materials are not updated and there are a lots of errors in the video transcription. The accent of the professors make the video lessons so difficult to understang. In any case there are some interesting information to understand about business and luxury fashion world.

I like the content but I found it very basic for me. I learned a lot about Italian fashion and retail. which I appreciated a lot. I would suggest this course to beginners and to people who have a little knowledge of fashion. I would have appreciated it the course would have a few scientific articles as references to back up their facts. Thank you!

The proffesors during the course doesn't have security, management the topic, the languague its too basic and no wasn't adapted to the fashion vocabulary, my feedback about the director of the course is taken references from other curses in fashion and luxury as the case of LVMH GROUP to better the content and the interviews during the course

While the reputation of Bocconi and the content of the course are good, professor/s command of the English language along with all the misspellings in the transcripts are unacceptable. Being bilingual (Spanish/English) makes it a little bit easier to guess what they are saying, specially when they translate the grammar from Italian. Thanks.

Hay temas confusos. P.e. los modelos de Digital Competition. A veces el contenido es poco claro y reiterativo. Los cursos de Coursera de escuelas de negocio de EEUU tienen contenidos mejor estructurados y mas concisos. Hay preguntas relativas a marcas / compañías que son imposibles de contestar si no conoces a dichas marcas.

The content of the course is very interesting, and I plan to go go through with it. A huge downside is that it is very difficult to follow the course because of the professors' strong accent and, at times, incorrect pronunciation. It is distracting. Also, it would be good to have weekly assignments, to stay on track.

Good overall course material. A little too much reliance on video talking heads. Might be helped by breaking up content with slides or reading material. Also tests have confusing language and the answers do not necessarily match what has been explicitly stated in the learning modules.

This course has a very nice content. The difficult thing is to follow the classes with a very difficult language spoken by the teacher. Her English is not so good, although she has a good know-how about the subject but the classes are completely boring and apathetic. What a shame!

interesting online course to expand your basic skills in Fashion and Luxury businesses, however the course content defintely needs a complete update. all the videos were registered in 2013 or 2014. .. Fashion business has changed over the last decade !

The course was interesting, but outdated. Most of materials was made in 2014 year. So all information about brands and their communication channels, and also about business models is not relevant in 2021. But is good for receiving general knowledge.

The content of the course is extremely dated and one of the lecturers has a thick accent. I would request the authorities to update the course as the structure is great. The final certificate does not mention the duration of the course as well.

This was a great course for finding out more about the fashion industry and the business models behind luxury brands however, on completion of the course i cant even view my certificate, it costs £36 to have it which was a bit dissapointing !!

The course was not very global. It was focused mostly on Italy and France and it contained some offensive material. e.g a comment about Africa in one of the interviews and a comment about beautiful models being skinny. But overall it was good.

It is ok for some basic knowledge of the industry but the extra materials are the same as the videos and the case studies are not updated. Also the strong accent of the professor doesn't make it easy to understand and follow the lessons.

While this course is very interesting, its contents are fairly fundamental and the tests are easy to pass. I suggest the content creators to further enrich the course with more in-depth knowledge and complexity. Thank you!

need update and more practical information

a lot of good theoretical information but not really was interesting to me because learned in the univeristy (but might be good for those who did not learned fashion marketing)

The content of the course was very interesting and informative, however a lot of the industry examples and case studies were too dated and no longer relevant in the current fashion industry climate.

Quite useful, but it would be great it would be updated with new content, since the market has evolved so much since the year of this program. Although I must say the content was good enough.

The factual information is great; however, there is data that is very old. It would be much better if you update the suitable content with the most up-to-date one.

Not up to date (2018) and the pace was quite slow. Some concepts weren't fully explained and they were overall general analyses of topics.
