Course Overview

Contour Fashion is a huge, established, and specialized field within fashion design. It is defined by garments worn close to, or shaping the contours of the human form, including corsetry, lingerie, swimwear, performance sportswear, nightwear, and athleisure. The Contour Fashion Innovation MA is ideal for contour graduates with advanced pattern-cutting skills wishing to further their practice, or fashion or textile graduates who want to specialize in contour design. The course explores creativity, technologies, and entrepreneurship, alongside the technical considerations of this complex specialism. Contextual studies into historical, political, social, and cultural considerations are at the core of this program and fuel intellectual curiosity, speculative inquiry, imagination, and divergent thinking to successfully understand design concepts.
