Fashion Design

I do. It's fucking hardcore. If you have a good spatial kind of mind where you can imagine folding something flat around a body, go for it. It's very technical and hands on. If you liked geometry in school(like constructing angles, and drawing lines with rulers) go for it. I would advise you to first take a beginners intro before enrolling into a 2-3 year course. Just to see if you like it.

I'm learning on my own. My issue is that I spend tons of time thinking of neat ass designs and not enough actually sewing shit up.

Maybe the reason of not sewing shit is the step between that and thinking of designs? a very important step.

You mean patternmaking?

Don't be a fucking idiot and waste your money.

Find a job that pays decent/has free time and do fashion stuff as a hobby. Maybe sit some form of BSc and use your loan money to learn the ropes. Then you'll have a job that supports your passion rather than an arts degree, shit job and no free time.
If you actually want it enough you'll do this, if you're just telling yourself you want it, you'll go to art's Uni like everyone else and end up in debt, cliche and unemployed.

Just my two cents. (Ex BA student, left for a software BSc after one year and I really dodged a bullet senpai.)

I am

It's pretty rough I'm only doing it because it's the one thing I'm actually knowledgeable about and could see working in

But even so it's fucking hard as shit man

As for UK schools just go follow all the CSM instagrams and follow all the "hip" students too and recent grads, see how they live

If you're in London at CSM LCF RCA etc alot is happening and there's quite a spotlight, it's an international stage with tons of up and coming talent so competition is pretty crazy but London does have some of the best infrastructure to nurture young designers (MAN, Fashion East, etc.) and idk about others but CSM has some of the best placements in the entire industry for their students during and after school.

Neither rick Owens or raf Simons went to do fashion at uni. Do you have the intention to start your own company?
