Through a dynamic combination of creative design and practical business, this inventive course develops innovative and entrepreneurial graduates ready to succeed in the fashion industry.

You'll be equipped with a deep understanding of the global fashion space, exploring marketing and business modules. You'll learn the sustainability of the fashion industry in depth, gaining insights into how to be a responsible leader in the sector. You'll build a wide range of technical and practical skills, including pattern cutting, garment construction and computer-aided fashion design software.

Much of the practical work is carried out in our Fashion Factory, our industry-standard Design and Cutting Studio. We have a purpose-built Design and Cutting Studio designed to replicate an industrial environment which provides a central hub for Fashion Design with Business students. This facilitates an authentic practitioner experience from the design process through to the production of garments.

This course has strong links with industry. We regularly invite guest speakers into the classroom to give you an up-to-date employer and industry perspective.
