UAL Level 2 Award and Diploma in Art and Design: Fashion and Textiles

Is this course for me?

This fashion and textiles course is the perfect introduction to working within the creative design sector. You will explore a wide range of practical and research skills. By designing and making your own fabric, clothing, and accessories, you will develop and learn more about your own style. You will be taught by professional designers and use industry-standard equipment. The course will improve your confidence, and you will learn about progression opportunities in the design sector.

If you see yourself working in any of these areas in the future, then this is the course for you:

• Fashion Design
• Textile Design
• Surface Pattern Design

What you will learn

We will introduce you to each of the different design areas listed above, and you will work on guided projects to help you improve your skills and develop your ideas. You will have the opportunity to specialise in your final project and your work will be exhibited in an exhibition. Working closely with professionals in the fashion and textiles industry, you will be kept up to date with current trends. You will be taught by both traditional and digital skills ensuring you know a range of techniques to complete a job.

Visits to Galleries and Exhibitions in the past have included:

• Victoria and Albert Museum
• Kew Gardens
• Tate Modern Fashion & Textiles Museum
• Specific locations for inspirational drawing & photography

At the end of this art and design course, you will have an individual portfolio of work.

We also collaborate with stakeholders, including University of the Arts London, to continually develop our programmes by listening to feedback. From doing this, all art and design programmes are to be assessed via live briefs set by stakeholders ensuring learners meet and acknowledge industry requirements.
