Fashion Design: Communication

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.

On the BA Fashion Design: Communication pathway, students learn how to express creative ideas using the body as a foundation. While on the course, students develop their creative identity and explore how to communicate that within their practice uniquely. Their work could fit within a multitude of creative fields, such as an exhibition, a book, a zine launch, a club night, a fashion presentation, or a catwalk. Students are encouraged to develop their design vision and become confident at communicating ideas visually and through digital software.

BA Fashion Design at Central Saint Martins is globally renowned. 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. Students thrive within the lively and dynamic art school environment that differentiates fashion at Central Saint Martins from other fashion courses, working with peers and industry to strengthen their learning, understanding, and opportunities. Graduates from BA Fashion Design: Communication are innovators, critical thinkers and trailblazers.

Students join the four year version of this course with an optional Diploma/Placement Year and can opt into the three year version whilst at UAL.
