The BA (Hons) Fashion degree is constantly evolving through close contact with industry, including industry visits, competitions, work experience, live briefs and visiting professionals, to ensure our graduates are employable and have employability opportunities. Throughout the course, you will develop your creativity through one of two pathways; Fashion Communication and Fashion Design. The Fashion Communication pathway translates the medium of fashion into a contextualised narrative, through a variety of directional processes, including creative direction, image making and moving image, fashion illustration, creative writing/editorial, fashion branding, fashion exhibition/curation and social media promotional campaigns. The Fashion Design pathway develops contemporary womenswear and menswear design into block-based and creative pattern cutting and industry standard garment construction techniques, including tailoring. You will develop awareness, knowledge and skills through an intensive and stimulating programme of study that synthesises theory with practice. This programme also encourages you to explore and respond to sustainability, ethics and diversity within the fashion industry, and gain a social and political awareness, which will encourage you to think not only creatively, but responsibly, and allow you to find your position in this global industry. As a specialist art school, additional resources are easily accessible; our fashion students regularly collaborate with photography, fine art, printed textiles and graphic design degree students on a range of projects and activities. External opportunities are a fundamental element of the programme; these come in many forms, such as visiting speakers, live projects and competitions. Recent external projects have taken place with: Louis Vuitton, Urban Outfitters, Harvey Nichols, Dior, Paris, The Confucius Institute, SHOWStudio, Leeds City Museum, Caryn Franklin and Julian Roberts.
