On November 15, 2024, Jeremy Currat, a HEAD alumnus and recipient of the 2023 La Redoute x HEAD Prize, made a significant impact at the HEAD Fashion Show by unveiling his collection, "Teenage Business." This poetic and contemporary line showcased his talent and creative vision, highlighting the exceptional collaboration between HEAD and the demanding world of fashion.

Over 2,000 attendees experienced an extraordinary event where emerging designers from the Department of Fashion, Jewelry, and Accessories presented 210 outfits. These creations captivated an audience of industry professionals, influencers, journalists, and fashion enthusiasts. An ethereal scenography, conceived by students from the Master in Space and Communication under the guidance of Inma Femenía and enhanced by the artistic direction of Victor Prieux, lent an unforgettable dimension to the evening.

" The HEAD Fashion Show is a unique platform where talent and craftsmanship meet the high standards of an international jury, creating tangible opportunities for the designers of tomorrow —a vital dimension for HEAD which strives to be both inspiring and professionalizing " stated Lada Umstätter, director of HEAD – Genève.
