Introduction

Fashion and textile design is a program taught at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand. The program is offered in campus-based modes with full-time options.

The Fashion and textile design study at Massey focuses on creating clothing or fabrics and developing design concepts. It covers topics such as analysing historical or contemporary fashion and textiles, design processes for generating ideas and concepts, fashion communication, pattern-making and creating prototypes, and sewing and tailoring for garment construction. It also includes sustainability topics such as zero-waste production methods and textile techniques from traditional to digital.

Students can explore fashion or specialise in textiles, or combine both. The study includes practical work through fashion workrooms with sewing and industrial equipment, studios for pattern-making and cutting, and computer labs for digital pattern-making using CAD software, pattern digitising and plotting. Students present their collections in exhibitions and fashion events at Massey and at fashion events in New Zealand and internationally.
