    You will be introduced to traditional models of the organisation and calendar of the fashion industry, from sourcing, product development and manufacturing, through to retail with the aim of building your contextual knowledge of the fashion industry as it developed in the twentieth century. Moving forward, fashion has become a truly global industry in which political, social and technological developments are causing the reinvention of traditional business models.

    The makeup of the fashion industry is complex, with market levels ranging from the independent practitioner to large multinationals operating with a wide global reach as well as different business models ranging from SMEs to large design houses, major international retailers through to national and international wholesalers.

    Design and manufacturing make up only a fraction of the functions of a fashion business; critical functions include industry and consumer research, brand licensing and property rights, product development and manufacturing, marketing and distribution.

    Organisations are also influenced by the environment in which they operate; changes in the political, economic, social and technological environments can also affect the success of an organisation. For future fashion organisations, having a sound understanding of local, national and international environments is crucial for success. In this module, you should gain an insight into some of the everyday problems that fashion organisations face and the basic economics that can help you solve and these problems and future-proof your business.

Other themes include Creativity and Enterprise and Entrepreneurship; Work Experience, Global Experience Field Trips, Projects and Skills; Professional Accreditation and Research Skills.We regularly review our course content, to make it relevant and current for the benefit of our students. For these reasons, course modules may be updated.

    Optional

You will be introduced to the global buying cycle, sourcing routes and production management, and the relationship of ethics and sustainability to this, all essential skills for future Fashion business managers. You will have the chance to undertake ‘live projects’ on a national and international level, and take part in networking, digital campaign launches and online marketing strategies.

Modules

  • This module builds upon all learning from the first year of the course, including Personal Development Planning. It focuses on planning ahead and considering career and personal ambitions.

    You will start to identify and explore your preferred area of the industry and formulate aims for your own future. You are expected to evidence awareness of steps required to achieve your aims; this should include reference to opportunities offered within the course (including placement, and/or study abroad options*) as well as extra-curricular prospects to improve your professional outlook.

    The lecture programme is designed to introduce you to practical methods of preparing you for external opportunities, and asking you to prepare proactively for your personal, academic and career aspirations. Lectures aim to introduce you to a variety of external opportunities, and explore ideas around employability, enterprise, social enterprise, volunteering, placements, funding for overseas opportunities, freelancing and live projects*.

    Optional

  • Those involved in building the future fashion industry will need to understand the importance of cross-industry collaboration and innovative developments, and how the implementation of such developments creates global opportunity. Technological advancements in the areas of 3D printing, artificial intelligence and biomaterials have catered to both industry and consumer demand for more circularity; opening the industry to responsible change.

    The aim of this module is to provide you with an overview of the global marketplace and an insight into how to identify new opportunities within emerging markets in order to develop their entrepreneurial skills

    The module covers global trend predictions, focusing on ‘innovation rich’ and ‘innovation poor’ definitions in order to identify new opportunities. You will be challenged to develop a business concept (this could be for a fashion related service, product or organisation) and to identify the unique selling point that gives it the advantage over competitors (this could be a new product, or a new way of marketing or delivering an existing product).

    Optional


  • In an increasingly digitally sophisticated and digitally demanding society, strategically communicated global campaigns are crucial to successful fashion businesses; future fashion brands increasingly use social media to market their products to consumer groups from Generation Y onwards. Digital marketing spans the globe and tomorrow’s digital brands and entrepreneurs will not be held back by physical location.

    This module aims to develop your critical and creative practice in the field of global campaign communication through the integration of theory and practice. You will have the chance to analyse marketing, advertising and branding campaign case studies, and strategic pre-production promotion in order to engage with ‘live project’ networking, digital campaign launches and online marketing strategies.

    You will also research and explore the link between ‘bricks and mortar’ and the online experience, and how to maximise a campaign’s potential to a target audience. You will have the opportunity to be involved in project management in order to produce an integrated online and offline launch and will explore apps, social media and a range of software in order to learn to use channels effectively and professionally for promotional purposes. You will be encouraged to take risks and innovate as a core aspect of their practice.

    The module also aims to develop your ability to differentiate productively between consumer and business campaign communications. Future business managers will need to be aware of how consumers in different areas of the globe engage with social media. You will review cases of how a successful brand has been damaged in the media or online via ill-judged communications that have caused consumer backlash and will explore the infectious potency of viral social media.

    Optional

  • This module aims to introduce you to existing models of the international buying cycle, sourcing routes and production management. It considers how these have evolved over the last 20 years in constantly changing political, economic and social environments that have forced companies to shift sourcing and production around the globe in order to remain viable businesses.

    This module should explain how the size of the organization – from independent designer, to multi-store chains – impacts upon sourcing options and production management. Sustainability and ethics are growing areas of the industry in their own right, with traceability and transparency of sourcing and manufacturing practices in a digital age impacting on any companies misjudging consumer expectation. You will analyse how innovation and technology are changing traditional views on raw materials in terms of sustainability. You will be challenged to rethink the traditional supply chain, and to address the product lifecycle with the aim of reducing the environmental footprint.

    We regularly review our course content, to make it relevant and current for the benefit of our students. For these reasons, course modules may be updated.
