Course summary

Over the last three decades, fashion has broadened its influence across the creative industries and many art forms. In parallel, new technologies have transformed how the fashion sector communicates with consumers. With the industry in a state of transition, it's more important than ever to analyse the impact of emergent media and to explore the needs of new consumers. MA Fashion Communication at Central Saint Martins embodies these paradigm changes.Explore the discipline through new digital platforms and media as well as more traditional modes of communication. The course helps you to develop the professional skills to join the next generation of fashion theorists, analysts, writers, journalists, image-makers and visual communicators. We invite you to apply a creative approach to the platforms through which you produce your work and help you to anticipate and respond to fluid, fluctuating global communication channels. MA Fashion Communication offers three pathways. Fashion Image is for innovative image-makers, while Fashion Histories and Theories offers an academic approach to the study of fashion. Fashion Journalism is aimed primarily at writers and editors. It offers the opportunity to focus on fashion writing for different media and markets. You will explore writing for traditional magazines and newspapers, alongside digital publishing including newsletters, websites, e-commerce and social media. You will develop a full understanding of social justice, the ideas and practices that explore equity and fairness in society and in the fashion industry specifically. Engaging with the concept of social justice involves challenging deeply embedded structural inequalities arising notably from divisions of race, class, gender, sexuality and ability and actively working to reduce them.While the majority of time and teaching is concentrated on your pathway study, there are opportunities to work with colleagues from other pathways and courses. This structure reflects the collaborative approach of the fashion industry. Across all pathways, the curriculum focuses on the realities of the modern industry as well as fashion theory, ensuring your work is informed by current knowledge and debates in your specialist area.
