The Styliste Designer Mode Bachelor’s Degree trains professionals to master the creative and technical skills required to design coherent, market-aware fashion collections. Across three years, students progress from fundamentals (drawing, patternmaking, textile knowledge, 3D prototyping) to advanced collection development, while building a strong personal design language rooted in fashion culture and responsible practices. Learning is hands-on and connected to industry: briefs with partners, cross-disciplinary projects, and portfolio reviews that simulate studio realities. Digital tools—2D/3D software and AI—are fully integrated to mirror current workflows and accelerate iteration, fit optimization, and material exploration. In Year 3, students select a specialization aligned with contemporary opportunities (from accessories to sportswear or digital design) and deliver a comprehensive final collection that articulates vision, positioning, and technical execution. 

For eligible candidates, an intensive fast track allows Years 1 & 2 to be completed in a single academic year, covering all creative/technical essentials before entering the specialization year.
