At the Manchester Fashion Institute, we run 20 weeks of workshops that allow our members to explore a range of aspects of the fashion industry. This includes fashion illustration, pattern cutting, ethical fashion, buying and merchandising. This year we have also included an up-cycling project using sportswear.

The Saturday Club provides our members with a unique opportunity to understand that there are more aspects to studying fashion than just design. It allows them to explore their creativity, while developing their understanding of the fashion industry. This is achieved with support from our brilliant lecturers from within the Fashion Institute.

Club Members will also take part in three National Events; the London Visit, in which club members take part in a pop-up self-portrait exhibition and visit the capital’s museums and galleries; a Masterclass with a leading creative industry professional (see 2018’s Nike Masterclass here); and the Summer Show where all club members exhibit their work in an exhibition in Somerset House, London – all for free!
