The evolving world of fashion and apparel needs creators to produce innovative, sustainable, and inclusive designs.

Fashion Design is a three-year co-operative Ontario College Advanced Diploma program providing professional career-directed training in the development, production management, and marketing of apparel design

Through classroom theory, lectures, lab work, field trips, and work term experience, skills are applied. Networking with industry professionals promotes future employment opportunities

Emphasis is placed on design analysis, apparel manufacturing and technology, and design communications and marketing.

You’ll develop skills in creative design, visual communication, business marketing, and apparel production technologies at Fanshawe College

You’ll also learn practical skills like fashion illustration, computer-aided design, pattern-making and draping, and garment construction. 

The third year of study culminates with a capstone project, where students conceptual, produce and present a final collection.

The faculty are committed to research opportunities through industry and community partnerships that move the industry forward.
