The course focuses on evolution and radical change in design. Students will explore how design is influenced by cultural, social, critical and historical studies. Students will develop their own signature style, experimenting across sketch work, 2D to 3D, knitwear and digital print in Kingston School of Art's workshops and dedicated fashion design studios. They will also have access to Kingston's working dress archive which includes pieces from 1750 to the present day, including the recently acquired Sibling knitwear archive. Kingston's strong industry links mean students will learn to apply creativity to the real-world and will be industry-ready on graduation. During the sandwich year, students have previously interned at Chanel, Givenchy, Saint Laurent, Kenzo, Ann Demeulemeester, Alexander McQueen, Victoria Beckham, JW Anderson and Acne Studios. Kingston alumni have gained senior positions in global fashion companies including Burberry, Calvin Klein, Paul Smith, All Saints, Alexander McQueen, Club Monaco, Margiela and Saint Laurent. Kingston's graduates are renowned for their understanding of the design process and strong creative style in the fashion industry.
