The Fashion Design BA Honours at the University of Westminster is your gateway to becoming an original and individual creative designer, prepared for the highest levels of the international fashion industry. You will explore the dynamic interplay between design, research, illustration, construction, and digital techniques like CAD and CLO 3D, with a strong emphasis on sustainability for fashion design. This course is ideal for ambitious individuals seeking a specialist career, equipping you with the imaginative and practical skills to address contemporary challenges in fashion, from climate change to societal shifts.
Studied full-time on campus over three years, you will engage in a hands-on learning experience through practical workshops, lectures, and seminars. You will develop a zero-waste design approach, explore surface embellishment, and build a professional portfolio. A significant feature is the eight-week internship opportunity, often timed to coincide with London Fashion Week, allowing you to work alongside leading designers. You will graduate with a pre-collection, a runway collection, and a comprehensive portfolio, ready to pursue roles in global fashion houses or establish your own brand.
