The Diploma of Fashion at TAFE NSW teaches students foundation skills for working in a design or fashion business environment. Students study fashion business topics from textiles to design and illustration, plus fashion branding and marketing. Learning outcomes include designing garments, selecting fabrics, print on fabrics, fashion documentation and communication, grade patterns, and assembling garments.

Students learn through a mix of theory and practical course work. TAFE NSW states that students use Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software and Adobe Creative Suite, and build understanding of how designs move from concept to production. The course is delivered as a higher education diploma with core units that students complete, supported by a timetable at the start of the course.

TAFE NSW states this diploma develops skills for junior employment in design or business-related roles in the fashion industry. The page also outlines study pathways after completion, including guaranteed subject credits toward the TAFE NSW Degree - Bachelor of Fashion Design.
