Falmouth Fashion Design has a strong focus on creating original and responsible clothing, informed by environmental, ethical and moral challenges of our time. It is a practical course teaching technical and creative design skills across womens- and menswear. Students gain a working knowledge of core industry skills such as research, analysis, translation, drawing, pattern cutting, and construction. In addition to more specialised directions, such as screen, digital and riso printing, machine knitting, help grow and use our natural dye garden, bookbinding, and performancewear construction techniques, such as ultrasonic welding. Students are taught digital pattern cutting skills using CLO3D, as well as the standard industry Adobe software for tech packs and flat drawings. As part of the Fashion and Textiles Institute, the students share modules across courses, and are actively encouraged to collaborate with their peers.
