About Fashion Design - Majors in Garment, Knitwear, Creative Pattern Making, Leather Goods, Footwear, Image, MA - at Institut Français de la Mode

With an emphasis on real-life experimentation and project-based learning, the Master of Arts in Fashion Design offers you ways to express a strong personal creative signature, broaden your artistic horizons and gain professional acumen.

Taught by the best faculty and practitioners in their field, they allow you to hone your technical skills and develop a full personal collection that is altogether meaningful, crafty and innovative.

The course runs over 19 months, plus a 6-month internship.
