Fashion

There’s never been a more exciting time to step into the world of fashion. At Oaklands College, you’ll immerse yourself in a fast-paced, ever-evolving industry where creativity, innovation and commercial insight come together to shape how fashion is designed, marketed and experienced.

 

On our Fashion Design course, you’ll develop essential garment construction skills while exploring the full creative journey—from initial concept to final piece. Working with a diverse range of materials and techniques, you’ll experiment, refine your ideas and grow in confidence as you define your own unique design identity.

 

Our Fashion Retail course offers insight into the business side of the industry, covering key areas such as marketing communications, branding, photography, retailing, merchandising and buying. You’ll also build valuable digital skills using industry-standard tools like Clo3D, Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, while exploring emerging spaces such as the metaverse.

 

At the end of your journey, you’ll have the opportunity to showcase your work at our prestigious End of Year Show—an inspiring public event that celebrates your creativity, hard work and professional growth.

The fashion department is a place where you can build on your strengths and explore your creativity. I have enjoyed making new friends while learning more about something I have always been passionate about - an opportunity I may not have had if I had stayed at my school.
