Fashion Design BA Honours

Overview
Study for a fashion design BA with us
Working in the fashion industry requires the right mix of technical skills and creativity. That's why our course will help you develop in those areas and beyond while preparing you for the world of work. We believe that discovering and perfecting your style as a designer is vital, so we help you to find and define your fashion identity and taste.

Our highly regarded course focuses on helping you develop your own designs and get practical experience from the very start. You’ll get stuck into different areas of fashion design, from illustration and technical drawings, to garment construction and cutting, all the way through to portfolio presentation and tailoring. Ours is one of only a few fashion design courses that allow you to explore menswear as well as womenswear.

You’ll have access to industry-standard facilities, equipped with everything you’ll need. These include industrial sewing machines, overlockers, state-of-the-art press and heat equipment, plus much more. Our London campus also gives you the perfect opportunity to explore one of the world’s fashion capitals whenever you want.

Put your knowledge into practice
Our fashion design degree makes work experience part of your learning from the very start. In your second year, you’ll undertake a six-week work placement working with designers as they prepare for London Fashion Week. In the past, our students have worked with fashion giants like Burberry, Erdem, Molly Goddard and Peter Pillotto.

First and second year students also participate in the End-of-Year Degree Show, where third year students showcase their creative talents to industry experts, ensuring that you gain experience around every aspect of organising a fashion show.

Our graduates have gone onto exciting careers in the fashion industry thanks to our strong links with art and design employers, plus industry partners who sponsor final year students and give visiting lectures. Some students might also be chosen for our annual press show. In the past it has been judged by highly regarded industry figures like Louise Gray, JJS Lee and James Long.

You’ll get all the support you need to succeed thanks to our technicians who’re professionals in the industry, ready to help you with projects and anything else you require assistance with.
