I teach on the Middlesex Univeristy Foundation in Fashion Course which is equivalent to the first 2 years of a BA Degree but also a qualification in its own right, preparing students for direct employment in industry. It is primarily designed for mature students or people returning or re training or for those who need more support to develop to degree level. I am based in Barnet in North London. I'm sure that both LCF and Trent would be good choices but i would say that there are always advantages to being based in London! University of the Arts, of which LCF is a part, has excellent facilities and resources.
Email me to discuss what you're doing there are some good crossovers here - take a look on my website under film Henry V111 and give some thought to how you may see yourself moving forward
Hi Yes. of course. If I can help ?...I have worked for many years as a freelance womenswear designer (mostly with India based manufacturers) and also developing own range/ label now. I do freelance consultancy, design. toile/pattern making and illustration ..oh, and teaching! I have had a general interest in all aspects of ethical / eco fashion (since about 1989!) and teach this as part Professional Studies on a FdA Fashion Course

Hello Ishwari, of course we must. It's always good to connect with fellow designers and creative people. I'd be interested to hear more about your MA and where the journey takes you.
Hi Ishwari,
I'm afraid I didn't study fashion, I studied Graphic Design, so I'm not the best person to ask, I do think that you won't go wrong with either though, they're both very reputable and you will have a lot of fun! Good luck!
Hi Ishwari
Lovely to hear from you so quickly!
I am actually really needing a patternmaker, to begin with. Do you know anyone that can help?
I arrive In Delhi tomorrow, and will mak plans from there on.
The fabrics i am looking to use are organic cotton such as jersey and voile & silks.
I will give you a call in the next few days when I have a phone!
Sincerely
