Fashion Education

Most fashion designers today have attended some kind of art school. There are a number of well known fashion design schools worldwide. Possibly the most famous is Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London. Other notable schools include Parsons the New School for Design in New York City, AIU in Los Angeles, Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp, the London College of Fashion, and The Royal College of Arts in London. Most fashion design courses last for around three years. As well as teaching students about the artistic and technical side of the subject, some courses include a year working in the fashion industry, to give students a taste of commercial fashion design. Others offer the chance to visit fashion houses abroad.
