Fashion

The Fashion and Textiles industry is a very broad employment sector and notoriously competitive. There’s a lot more to a career in fashion than just fashion itself, and there are many different roles within the sector to consider.

You could be involved with everything from buying, merchandising, sourcing, finance, design and garment technology, retail management, marketing, HR or even journalism; find yourself working for a for a high street brand, a luxury retailer or anything in between. Proven experience is necessary to build your skill set and industry contacts. Large fashion retailers in the UK offer a wide variety of industrial placements and schemes for graduates and trainees within the fashion and design sector.

Although design houses and fashion and textiles production is based all across the UK, London still remains the biggest employer.
