FIDA Professional Portfolio Reset: Showcase Your Vision to design director Sandra Battistel

FIDA Professional Portfolio Reset: Showcase Your Vision to design director Sandra Battistel

FIDA introduces the Professional Portfolio Reset, a global creative initiative designed to reignite careers and sharpen professional focus. This unique opportunity invites artists and designers to present work inspired by the dynamic world of high-end eyewear to Sandra Battistel, celebrated Design Director at Mondottica.

This is a chance for FIDA members to gain exclusive feedback and insight from one of the industry’s most respected design leaders. Sandra Battistel has overseen collections for some of the world’s most recognisable eyewear brands—including Anna Sui, Christian Lacroix, AllSaints, Vivienne Westwood, Karen Millen, Hackett, and many others. Her perspective, shaped by years of guiding these celebrated labels, offers participants a rare window into how top-tier eyewear design comes to life.

From illustrating concepts to designing products and packaging, members can create outcomes that reflect their personal style while engaging with the spirit of Mondottica’s diverse brand universe. All submitted work will be reviewed during a live Zoom feedback session with Sandra, giving participants tailored professional critique and invaluable insider knowledge.

Exclusive to FIDA worldwide members, the Professional Portfolio Reset is a purpose-built opportunity to refresh your portfolio, expand your creative approach, and gain industry-level insight without the pressure of a commercial commission.

Whether you are looking to reset your career trajectory, upskill your understanding of global design markets, or simply spark new ideas, this programme offers the chance to showcase your work to a leading creative mind and leave with a reinvigorated professional edge.
