A graphic image features a black circular logo with the letters "fip" in white, alongside the full name "fashion in process" and the subtitle "DESIGN RESEARCH FOR CULTURE INTENSIVE INDUSTRIES". The background is characterized by a geometric pattern of gray dots and red Y-shaped lines overlapping a three-dimensional, flexible white material, cut with modular patterns that create volume and depth. The composition suggests a blend of academic research, textile innovation, and advanced industrial design.

Fashion in Process is a multidisciplinary research Lab at the Department of Design – Politecnico di Milano. FiP focuses on innovation for culture intensive industries, bridging technologies and humanities through a design driven approach.

FiP develops research, applied projects and knowledge transfer activities aiming at supporting and promoting the sustainable development of fashion and cultural and creative industries.

FiP was founded in 2014 by Paola Bertola, Chiara Colombi, Valeria Maria Iannilli and Federica Vacca, as a research platform supported by ad-hoc team of experts and collaborators.
