The Fashion Design programme is concerned with the design of clothing. Fashion Designers consider the shape, cut, silhouette and construction of clothing and tend to think more three dimensionally when designing. The focus of studio-based activity is on the development of specialised discipline expertise working in an ‘expert amongst experts’ environment which values the interactive, synergetic and every evolving nature of the creative industries. The emphasis is on practice-based learning, skill acquisition, individual and collaborative creative idea development. Non-studio based learning encompasses critical, historical and cultural studies covering specific disciplinary contexts and wider knowledge domains. The programme aims to create assured and specialist textile design graduates with clear individual and creative identities, prepared for industry employment, self-employment and postgraduate study in local and global contexts.
