2. Course description Are you passionate about fashion, clothes and the latest looks? Do you want to design high street collections, bespoke, high-end couture, or style others for magazines and photoshoots? Can you see yourself working behind the scenes of retail fashion with the army of creative people who drive the UK fashion industry? If you can, this is the course to help start your journey. On this Level 3 Diploma and Extended Diploma in Fashion & Textiles, you'll explore, develop and test your creativity across a range of units, from design concepts to printmaking, drawing and illustrations to using photography for self-promotion. You'll focus on textiles techniques - including embroidery and pattern repeat - and look at experimental craft techniques and methods too. As well as expanding your creative abilities, you'll also learn a range of transferable skills to help you succeed in a number of different roles in the fashion and textiles industry. You'll work to project or fashion show deadlines & requirements, complete collaborative teamwork assignments, and develop your problem solving and communication expertise. As with nearly all of our creative qualifications this diploma and extended diploma is awarded by University of the Arts London Awarding Body - the only specialist creative arts awarding body in the UK.
