Course Description

This course was previously titled BA (Hons) Fashion Textiles and will be replaced by our BA (Hons) Printed Fashion Textiles course from 2022 – check back soon for new course information!

Turn your passion for colour, texture and pattern into a career in fashion with our BA (Hons) Fashion Textiles degree course.

This course will give you the freedom to explore printed textiles through a wide range of design-led projects, and sets itself apart by giving you the skills to become not only an excellent fashion designer but also a specialist in print design as you develop an in-depth understanding of hand and digital techniques.

In our open studio environment, you’ll have plenty of space to develop the visual, creative and practical skills you need­ to work in contemporary textiles. Your printed designs could be realised as anything from a catwalk collection, to a fabric design and accessories or fashion-led interiors and textile art.

Along the way, you'll have plenty of opportunities to show off your talents. You’ll get the chance to work on live industry projects and exhibit your work at shows including Graduate Fashion Week and the New Designers Exhibition, and make the most of the department’s industry links with fashion brands such as Alexander McQueen, Peter Pilotto, Material Lab and Westcott Studios.
