Program description
The MA Fashion Marketing and Global Cultures programme at London College of Fashion is designed to raise awareness of the diversities of peoples, places, and practices that shape the global fashion industry. It provides opportunities to learn about fundamental marketing and business practices operating on local, national, and international scales, exploring how fashion and cultural practices differ across the world while understanding why fashion is one of the world’s largest consumer industries.
