Course summary

Whether you do not feel ready for degree-level study, don’t have the right qualifications, want to change your subject specialism or return to study after an absence from education, we aim to encourage a broad range of students to undertake our Foundation year. On successful completion of the Foundation year, you'll be able to move on to study for the Fashion Marketing and Promotion BA over a further three years of study.

Our Foundation Year in Fashion is your invitation to discover who you are as a creative and what you want to express through fashion. It’s a creative laboratory, a space to experiment, question, and find your voice before progressing onto the BA Fashion Marketing and Promotion degree.

You’ll explore the ideas and challenges shaping today’s industry, from sustainability and digital innovation to diversity and representation, developing the adaptability and critical thinking essential for the next generation of fashion innovators.

Through project-based learning, practical workshops, and collaboration with peers across art and design, you’ll experiment with design concepts, sharpen your communication skills, and grow your technical ability. You’ll also build a professional portfolio that demonstrates your potential and individuality. Your professional portfolio won't just showcase your work; it will tell your story, revealing the creative thinker you're becoming and the impact you want to make.

At Westminster, we value authentic voices and bold perspectives. Your background and experiences are central to shaping fashion’s future. With London as your extended classroom, you’ll connect learning to the city’s cultural energy through field trips and industry engagement.

By the end of the year, you’ll be ready to progress onto the Fashion Marketing and Promotion BA as a confident creative, prepared to make fashion a force for positive change. Our course in Fashion Marketing and Promotion has been designed to cater for creative, passionate and motivated students who want to pursue a creative degree within the fashion industry and develop a solid understanding of the fashion industry in our digital era.

Portfolio
We are very interested in your potential as a student, and in support of your application we ask you to prepare a visual portfolio of 10 (minimum) to 15 (maximum) images of art, design or media work to reflect your course of interest. What should I include in my portfolio submission? We accept drawing and painting, graphic design and illustration, photography, printmaking and digital prints, sculpture and installations, moving image, 3D and product design. Film, video and animation files should be uploaded on YouTube or similar website and links should be provided as part of your Portfolio. If you include moving image, then there should be a maximum of 3 video files – and each file must be no longer than 3 minutes duration. Please ensure that all files are in common formats, e.g. PDF; Word, .DOCX, etc. Please add some commentary to your Portfolio so that we can see your thinking and ability to evaluate your work. How should I structure my portfolio? Please compile all items of your portfolio into a single file (preferably PDF), or you may wish to create a simple portfolio website, and send us the link. Some DOs and DON’Ts: DO provide a single PDF file uploaded to our system. If your file is too large try reducing the file size or upload to Google Drive or DropBox and upload the link to your file instead. DO make an online portfolio website on Wix, Blogger or similar with link uploaded to our system, if you prefer this format rather than an uploaded file. DON’T upload your portfolio to our system as many separate files – this makes it difficult for us to view your work. DON’T use any platform that requires log-in, password, or an account to view – for example Tumblr, Instagram. To submit your portfolio work as a link, please save the hyperlink in a word/PDF file and then upload this document to our systems as instructed by our admissions team. Be sure to make that link accessible to us.
