Key facts

• Fashion designers can be self-employed and set up their own labels but can also work with design studios or through an agency. The advanced development of a personal stylistic identity means that students are better placed to compete within the marketplace after they’ve graduated. They will be employable in a range of different roles including freelance fashion designer, design room assistant, garment technician, production assistant and fashion designer in both high-street and designer labels.
