BA (Hons) Fashion & Textile Design This course explores a synthesised approach to fashion and textile design, with entrepreneurial practices embedded into the curriculum, directly benefitting the employability of our graduates. Our students are introduced to core creative design development methods including: drawing techniques, fashion design, pattern-cutting, fashion illustration, CAD, silk screen and digital printing, embroidery and constructed textiles. These are enhanced with innovative workshops such as digital projection, animation, 3D printing and ideas laboratories. Our principal focus is on the student’s holistic learning of the complete design process and the acquisition of specialist skills that are relevant to the industry. Students are taught in small groups with an emphasis on original design aesthetics, challenging and encouraging the student’s creative potential throughout their study. Our teaching principles are centred on a profound respect for traditional studio practice and craftsmanship supported by research led teaching, this provides the catalyst for authentic and original design. Our students explore these processes alongside innovative technologies, which push the boundaries of fashion and textile design. Our curriculum is enhanced by visiting lecturers, speakers and industry leaders; allowing our students to participate in and shape the most current trend forecasts and debates pertinent to the fashion and textiles industry. From our graduate shows and design competition winners, our course has an established reputation and recognition from industry for our students’ use of digital design methods and presentation techniques. We believe these skills are as crucial as excellent visual, written and verbal communication skills. All are essential in developing graduates with confidence, professionalism and pride in their work and achievements. This is expressed in their motivation and ambition as they liaise with and enter the Industry, or in setting up their own fashion labels. A fashion and textiles graduate from the University of Portsmouth can expect to develop distinctive, innovative and creative design expertise, integrated with subject specific business knowledge, making them an attractive candidate in a wide range of employment opportunities in the fashion and textiles industry.
