“That blue represents millions of dollars of countless jobs, and it’s sort of comical how you think that you’ve made a choice that exempts you from the fashion industry, when in fact, you’re wearing a sweater that was selected for you by the people in this room… from a pile of ‘stuff’.”
If you are already mouthing Miranda Priestly’s words from the Devil Wears Prada, then a course in Fashion Designing is what you ought to consider. What are some of the best fashion design courses in Canada? Where can you study them?
When one talks about fashion design, it is natural to think of the fashion capitals of the world like Milan, New York or Paris. Why choose Canada?
Canada is home to some of the budding fashion capitals of the world. Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, and Vancouver are also becoming fashion powerhouses, providing more flexible opportunities to work and excel.
Toronto Women’s Fashion Week and the Vancouver Fashion week are gaining international momentum.
Canada’s commitment to sustainability has also trickled into the fashion industry, giving it more scope for experimentation to create eco-friendly and sustainable fashion.
The chance of getting a PGWP (post-graduation work permit) for a skilled worker leading to a PR is very high.
For an international student, Canada is an extremely welcoming and safe destination.
What is the scope of fashion designing in Canada?
With the paradigm shift that is taking over the fashion industry, it has diversified from mainstream clothing, apparel and design to include food stylists, display designers in museums, tech product designing, scouting for environment-friendly materials, employing technical fabric and more. The courses in Canadian colleges stay in tune with these changes, offering industry-specific courses.
A typical fashion degree undergraduate course in Canada will be categorized into core courses and specializations. The core courses include creative and technical approaches to design, history, ethics, sustainability, the business of fashion and so on.
The range of electives is extremely vast and niche. They range from fashion photography and journalism to technical apparel. The point is that you ought to look for those schools that provide the exact specialization that you are looking for.
What are the career opportunities after studying fashion design courses at Canadian Universities?
With the disciplines of fashion and design overlapping to a great degree, the career options are endless. It is also true that the industry is extremely competitive and fast-paced. So, the onus is on you to keep up-skilling and stand apart from the rest of the crowd.
At its core lies fashion designing. As a fashion designer, you get to bring your designs to life. It is natural to start out as an assistant and then slowly climb up the ladder. The average salary for a Fashion Designer is CA $66934 per year.
You can also look into careers in fashion merchandising. This goes into the business side of fashion, analyzing trends, planning for designs and stocks, and so on.
Production is a whole world in itself, whether it is haute couture or a chain retail outlet. It needs some technical knowledge of textiles, machinery, sustainability, and zero-wastage. Production managers/ in-charges ensure quality and consistency, making them some of the front-liners in the fashion industry.
Fashion tech is a relatively new arena to consider, especially since almost all design is now made on a computer. Surging ahead with the digital revolution and the burst of AI, fashion tech is now taking over data analysis, the need for trial rooms, material development and so on.
For the wordsmith in you, fashion journalism, advertising and publishing also have an entire range of career opportunities.
