On Friday May 3, Istituto Marangoni Miami welcomed back Rocco Iannone to its campus. Since 2019, Iannone has spearheaded the creative content, design and image of Ferriar’s licensed apparel and accessories. Iannone took part in a conversation with the Institute's student body and community members during the Miami Grand Prix on his imagination for what the future of the brand holds.

Once the conversation ended, Iannone was awarded with an Honorary Master’s Degree in Fashion Design by IMM’s VP of Academics Michael Allen Johnson for his outstanding work in the industry. A lively cocktail party was held on the school’s terrace with a sweeping view of the Miami Design District.
