If you are committed to breaking into the fashion industry, it will give you the best possible chance do so. Those with a non-fashion degree will find it difficult to compete with fashion graduates and will therefore need to study a postgraduate fashion degree. It is possible to get onto a fashion degree straight after studying A levels, Scottish Highers, a BTEC extended diploma or another suitable level three qualification. You will focus on the development of textiles for use in the fashion industry through print, knit, embroidery and embellishment and through the use of both traditional craft techniques and contemporary digital processes. You will develop your knowledge of fabrics, colour and silhouette, engage in textile sampling and prototype testing in 2D and 3D and explore areas such as fashion awareness, trend forecasting, illustration, pattern cutting and garment construction.

However, the most important requirement is a proven enthusiasm for and knowledge of fashion. This is why almost all fashion courses, apart from the business-focused degrees, ask you to submit a portfolio of your work and attend an interview to discuss this portfolio. Studying an art and design subject is often essential, especially for the creative degrees such as fashion design, and is the easiest way to build up a portfolio of work.
