If You Want to Study Fashion, This Is Where to Do It
We rank outfits, restaurants, and public universities — and now there's a list outlining the top schools in the fashion industry. The Business of Fashion has revealed a list of the top 21 institutions in the world for a fashion-related BA, and there's plenty to learn from who made the cut.
Coming out in the coveted first place was Central Saint Martins in London. The university has a long list of notable alumni including Stella McCartney, John Galliano, Sarah Burton, and Riccardo Tisci — even Kanye West lusted after a spot at the school — so it should come as no surprise that it has captured the coveted top spot. When it comes to US schools, Parsons The New School of Fashion landed in the No. 4 spot, while Fashion Institute of Technology was right behind in spot five.
