Our BA (Hons) Fashion course will help you build a wide portfolio of creative and practical skills, as well as nurturing your own design identity – fully preparing you for a career in the fashion industry. We’ll encourage you to be forward thinking and experimental, with an intellectual and critical view of the fashion industry that challenges you, enhances your Employability and shapes your ambitions. Based in our fashion studios – which are kitted out with industry-standard facilities for design, drawing, pattern-cutting, pressing and sewing – you’ll be working within a close-knit hub of like-minded creative individuals, simulating the industry’s collaborative workroom vibe. Our course will also equip you with a firm foundation in fashion history and theory, so you’ll learn about a range of fashion and design concepts, and understand how these relate to your own work and creative thinking. An emphasis on drawing and illustration will help you professionally, communicate your ideas to industry professionals, and the compulsory work placement during your second year will give you the opportunity to put it all into practice and discover the area of fashion that most appeals to you.
