The areas of study include: Fashion design and research; the fashion business; promotion sourcing and sampling; professional practice including work placements (internships); textile technology; print and knit; and contextual studies in fashion and art history.

Work Placement (Internship):

Fashion design students all undertake at least one period of work placement within the fashion industry during their time at Westminster. There is a period of 6 weeks from the end of December to London Fashion Week in February where all second year students work for a company of their choice. Students negotiate with tutors on finding a fashion placement during this period.

The BA Fashion Design course can be studied as a three year course or as a four year sandwich fashion degree course option. If you choose the sandwich year option you will spend a year working within the fashion industry on a work placement (internship) negotiated  between yourself and your work placement tutor. The 4-year option is for applicants who feel they would benefit from an opportunity for more professional development.

This is a great opportunity for fashion design students to undertake a year in industry and gain further experience before commencing with the final year of their studies. Some examples of fashion design companies where our students have gone on placement include: Stella McCartney, Alexander McQueen, Jimmy Choo, Versace, Julien MacDonald, Harper's Bazaar NY, Vogue, Moschino among many others.
