Marangoni Miami’s “Volare” returns this May, promising an evening full of artistic breakthroughs and future-focused ambition.

 

The 2025 edition of the fashion show will unfold on May 15 at 8:30 PM in Palm Court, the creative nucleus of the Miami Design District.

 

This year, the runway won’t just present fashion—it will mark the launch of the new IMM x Miami Design District Scholarship.

 

What “Volare” Really Means

The term “Volare,” meaning “to fly” in Italian, symbolizes freedom, limitless imagination, and the soaring ambitions of young designers.

 

For Istituto Marangoni Miami students, it represents their journey from classroom to catwalk—where sketches transform into statements.
