British School of Fashion

At the forefront of fashion business education in the UK

A postgraduate school with a mission to educate, challenge and develop a new generation of fashion and luxury business leaders, innovators and entrepreneurs.

For decades, GCU has contributed to the business of fashion through the creation of pioneering courses. We were the first UK institution to offer an MSc in International Fashion Marketing in 2000. We are still one of only a few universities worldwide to provide a dedicated MBA in Luxury Brand Management.

The British School of Fashion intends to build upon the foundation provided by our strong heritage and fashion industry expertise to cultivate a learning experience based upon a global perspective, cooperative understanding and personal aspirations.

Specialised fashion knowledge

Based at GCU London, our researchers are provided with an ideal environment to cross boundaries and engage in inter-disciplinary dialogue. They are involved in a number of funded projects and disseminate their findings through cutting-edge research papers that are presented at leading international conferences and published in high-profile refereed academic journals. Many are regularly cited in mainstream news media.

Highly aligned with GCU's Common Good mission, our research encompasses sustainability and is underpinned by the theme of societal innovations.
