Study Abroad Short Courses
Fashion Studies
This innovative course reflects the way in which fashion continuously redefines itself through processes of evolutionary and radical change. The course is designed to stimulate curiosity in fashion by enabling exploration and integration of the subject strands of design and construction with fashion communication and promotion and their application to new technologies, as well as historical and contextual frameworks. You will have the opportunity to design not only garments but also accessories, fashion jewellery, footwear and millinery.
