What Will You Learn?

An ever-changing and thriving art, fashion continually moves and develops. The History of Fashion Diploma Course guides you through the industry’s changes and trends, from its origins in Ancient Greece to the present day, taking in some of fashion’s biggest names and the four major fashion capitals of the world along the way.

Uncover the origins and evolution of fashion from ancient Greece to the extravagance of the Renaissance and the turning point of fashion in the 18th century. Explore 19th-century fashion and how the Industrial Revolution affected textile production, printing, and patterns. Move into 20th-century fashion by exploring haute couture, World War I fashion, the Roaring Twenties and iconic flapper fashions.

Discover the impact of the fashion counter-revolution in the 1930s and 1940s and how Hollywood affected the fashion world at this time. Look into the effects of WWII on fashion both during and post-war, and learn how musicians and movie stars continued to shape the most popular fashion trends in the 50s and 60s.

We will look at the 1960s and 1970s and how they were monumental in the fashion world, with various influences from music and subcultures. We’ll also look into the excess fashions of the 1980s and the wide variety of styles popular in the late 20th century.

We’ll explore popular styles from the early 2000s, the most popular fashion trend in the 21st century, and the elements that are affecting current trends.

The course also reviews the big four fashion capitals: Paris, Milan, New York, and London.

By studying this course, you will:

  • Become familiar with the origins and evolution of fashion
  • Learn the intricacies of fashion throughout the 20th century
  • Become familiar with big fashion names in the industry and the world’s four major fashion capitals
  • Discover today’s fashion trends and the influences affecting them
