Our students are offered diverse and exciting placement opportunities, allowing them to pursue their passions, develop their skills, and build rewarding careers in a variety of sectors and roles. Many find employment with established fashion design houses, working as assistant designers, design coordinators, or junior designers. Some students choose to start their own beauty or fashion brands or businesses, working as freelance designers, stylists, consultants, or entrepreneurs. You may also work for fashion magazines, websites, or blogs as fashion editors, stylists, photographers, or writers.
With the growing influence of technology in the fashion industry, there are increasing opportunities for fashion graduates to work for fashion tech companies.These roles may involve developing fashion-related software, designing wearable technology, or working on e-commerce platforms and digital marketing initiatives.
In the months ahead, I encourage each of you to seize every opportunity to push the boundaries of your creativity, to challenge the status quo, and to make your mark on the world of beauty and fashion design. I am excited to see all that we will accomplish together in the coming year and beyond. Here’s to a year filled with creativity, inspiration, and boundless possibilities!
