BA Fashion Design at Central Saint Martins comprises five pathways: Womenswear, Menswear, Knit, Print, and Communication. We encourage collaboration at every stage, and throughout the course you will work on projects with the other courses. As a Fashion Design program, we encourage students to break down all societal barriers and perceptions when describing gender and identity. We embrace a non-gendered approach.
The Womenswear Design pathway enables you to meet differing creative design challenges; learning the skills to express ideas and a viewpoint around a relevant theme and pushing the boundaries of traditional womenswear design. You will be encouraged to develop your design vision, become confident at communicating ideas visually on paper and through engaging with digital software, tools and platforms, and learn how to express their creativity from 2D into 3D engineered conceptual womenswear.

The course has an excellent staff team of highly experienced and diverse practitioners and researchers with international profiles who remain connected to their industry and are at the forefront of fashion.
