A 1-year programme, accredited by the University of the Arts London Awarding Body, designed to prepare you for progressing onto any art and design related degree.
This course is to help you create a Fashion Designer’s portfolio through a rigorous thought process: from content and research, then onto analysis and exploration through 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional design methodologies, and finally, the execution of a fashion product and presentation. Pattern cutting and garment construction workshops are integrated into the curriculum to support the design realisation stage of the projects. Students are introduced to skills such as basic block making and prototype production. The key is to generate creative ideas not only from visual, 2-dimensional design processes (illustrations), but also from the architectural viewpoint through limitless garment construction methods through studying the human form.
Students are encouraged to challenge and question the purpose and idea of Fashion in the times we live in. Designing a beautiful garment is unimportant anymore. At CSVPA you will be encouraged to think outside of the box and approach Fashion Design in a creative and conceptual way. Not only are you encouraged to create unusual and exciting fashion ideas, but also to help drive our industry into the next era and beyond with responsible and sustainable solutions. Passion and curiosity in learning is what we are looking for in addition to a determined and committed work ethic.
