Cracow School of Art and Fashion Design

Fashion and Jewellery Design Diploma Course in Europe

International School of Fashion Design in English

Our 2-and-half-year full-time diploma program in English ends with a diploma collection of 8 silhouettes which is presented at a prestigious diploma show – Cracow Fashion Awards.

The educational philosophy is not to cram information but to release your creative potential while studying several fashion techniques. Most classes are workshops.  The teachers who have established fashion designers and artists bring the School their invaluable professional experience. This system ensures that the students are taught by a variety of individuals who offer different perspectives.

The program includes fashion design, jewelry design, fabric design, fashion illustration, sewing, pattern making,  visual identification, painting,  conceptual design, shoe design,  fashion photography, computer programs, and others.

Classes are held in the school building, but for those who want to study online, we have opened a separate online group. You can also start classes online if you are waiting for a Polish visa and, without any cost, move to the group at school.

The School is approved by the Polish Ministry of Culture and National Heritage and is listed in the Ministry’s Art School Directory.

The number of places is limited. There are no entrance exams. The order of applications determines the admission. The graduates receive a diploma with the title: Fashion Designer.
