Reflecting the spirit of the age
Is it cool on the catwalk? Probably. Yet shows and supermodels
are just the tip of the fashion iceberg. The fashion industry
covers many different areas and needs people with a wide range
of skills.

What is textile design?
What are the career prospects?
The ultimate career in terms of fashion design is to set up
and run your own label - not surprisingly this is difficult
and very few reach the heights of people like Vivienne Westwood
or Paul Smith. Jobs working for a designer label are also
very sought after. It's really worth developing skills that
are in short supply to take you into the industry such as
pattern cutting, textile technology, production management
and studio management.
