Fashion
Design is an exciting course which will
introduce you to the many and varied
aspects of Fashion. Over a period of two
years the course aims to provide you with
the skills of successful visual research,
through to the development of your own
professional fashion and textile designs.
With a strong focus on key technical skills,
students will be taught how to develop and
cut patterns, how to construct beautifully
crafted garments, how to present your
ideas clearly and professionally, as
well as how to source the most suitable
materials to do this.
Within the fashion industry, cultural and
critical understanding is an essential
element of the creative process. As
part of delivering this area, we actively
organise visits to both local and national
museums, galleries, retailers, and trade
fairs (including Premiere Vision in Paris).
These field trips combined with lectures
and seminars support both the
practical and theoretical elements
of the course. With great transport links
to London and Brighton, students are also
encouraged to regularly visit the wealth of
cultural resources available to further enrich
their own work, and inspire creativity.

Foundation DegreeGraphic Communication
For more information contact the Subject Leader Vanessa Marr:
Deadlines, late nights working at your
Mac; art directing; commissioning;
client meetings, and the undiminishing
excitement you get when you see the
work that YOU designed on a billboard,
in a bookshop or online. No two days
will be the same: design a logo in the
morning then make the finishing touches
to a magazine in the afternoon… an FdA
in Graphic Communication will prepare
you for all this. Taught by practicing
professional designers, we will give you
a good grounding in idea development,
layout skills, typography and work with
you to develop professional level skills to
put all this into practice and prepare you
for work. We offer loads of tutor time,
small groups and great facilities.
