Fashion MA

Kingston University's spacious fashion department is renowned for its well-established industry links and will provide relevant and suitable projects to stimulate your progress.
As well as a dedicated and fully equipped, functioning design studio all our students are inducted into the University's high-tech workshops through our 'design through making' programme to develop your skills.
You will be given the opportunity to specialise in womenswear, menswear or knitwear and supported accordingly with industry practitioners and projects.
The interdisciplinary nature of the course will mean you will meet with like-minded designers based in different disciplines with the same goals. Collaboration of this nature is wholly encouraged.
Key projects give you the opportunity to work in 3D with Kingston University's industry experienced pattern cutters and garment technicians.
By the time you graduate, you will have achieved an unmistakable identity through your major project and portfolio, gaining the potential to become an established fashion design practitioner.

Many of our graduates are keenly setting up their own businesses gaining positions in world leading design houses, and freelancing across the creative industries.

Some of the companies our graduates are currently working for Elena Miro, Italy, Topshop, Clemency London, Gareth Pugh, and Philips Design.

We encourage design research practice during our Fashion MA programme and several of our students go on to develop their postgraduate practice at MPhil and PhD level.

A good first degree in fashion design or a related subject, product design, graphic design or fine art.
A portfolio will be required for interview.
Interviews can take place locally or via the internet.
