            About Us

            ORIGINS

            Alexis Lavigne, inventor of the mannequin and the supple measuring tape, founded ESMOD in 1841. It is the world’s first fashion school and the birthplace of several patented design methods.

            Ibu Hartini Hartarto brought ESMOD to Jakarta in 1996, having observed the skill and fashion interest in the youth of Indonesia. By launching ESMOD Jakarta she opened an avenue to professional fashion education and an opportunity to compete in the global market. Today, ESMOD Jakarta is led by Ibu Maya Dewi Hartarto.

            ESMOD is now the worldwide fashion education leader, present in 15 countries worldwide, with 23 different schools.

            ESMOD JAKARTA’S DNA

            We uphold the rigorous professional standard that is set by ESMOD throughout all its locations across the world. And we encourage young designers to adapt it to the rich cultural heritage of Indonesian culture, by using techniques to preserve and innovate traditional costumes and textile prints.

            ESMOD Jakarta places fashion in a wider context. That’s why we focus on both fashion and business, preparing both the future trend-defining fashion designers as the future fashion entrepreneurs. In our fashion design programs we divide time equally between design and pattern drafting (Stylisme & Modelisme), and provide you with the skills needed to bring a collection from start to end.

            HIGHLIGHTS

            ESMOD Jakarta actively connects students with key players in the fashion industry through participation in numerous fashion events like fashion shows and competitions. One highlight is the annual Creative Show and Fashion Art+Vibes powered by ESMOD Jakarta in which the talents of our alumni and students are showcased through a 2-day extravaganza of fashion shows, art installations and music performances.

            ESMOD Jakarta itself also organizes several fashion design competitions for anyone interested in fashion design to demonstrate their talents.

            THE TEACHING METHOD AND TEACHERS

            Having a heritage of more than 170 years in fashion education enables us to offer you the very best in patented teaching methods and materials. ESMOD Jakarta keeps close connection with ESMOD International, specifically Paris, to constantly innovate and provide you with an education that’s up to international standards.

            Our teachers are a mix of international and national talents. A number of our teachers either come from abroad or have studied there. Almost all have worked in the fashion industry, earning their marks with famous brands or designers or having established respected businesses of their own.
