FOR WHOM?
Anyone who would like to apply to the Fashion Design program. No previous experience is required.


AIM
The aim of the three-week course is to develop a professional fashion portfolio. With this fashion portfolio you can apply to all fashion schools in Germany and abroad. Each participant works at a different pace, so the number of finished pieces at the end of the course may vary.


WHY WITH ABOUT:FASHION?
Due to our teaching activities at various fashion schools throughout Germany, we have internal insights into their admission and examination procedures. From this knowledge we have developed a successful concept, which we pass on to you in our portfolio course. Since we are not bound to any fashion school, we advise you independently which fashion school is best suited for you.

The portfolio course is led by successful fashion designers with national and international experience. One-on-one meetings are held to guarantee the best possible results. Presentations of work will be done in a group setting.


ON-SITE
The course takes place at ABOUT:FASHION.


LANGUAGE
The course is held in German and, if required, also in English.


COURSE SIZE
We keep our courses small in order to guarantee our course participants the best possible advice. The course takes place with a minimum of three participants. There is a maximum of 12 participants in the courses.


ANY QUESTIONS?
We will be happy to answer them in our free initial consultation!

The Premium Fashion Portfolio Course helped me a lot and was truly enjoyable

I can especially recommend the course to anyone who feels unsure about how to start their portfolio or what is expected from it. During the course, you explore a variety of techniques, and in the end, you not only have a complete portfolio but also gain a lot of valuable experience. Silke and Marc support you throughout the entire process and help wherever they can.

I learned a lot in these three weeks in Berlin with About Fashion!

I did the Premium fashion portfolio course on site. And I had the best experience there! The help we got from Silke and Marc was very useful. They did a very good job guiding us with our work and always gave you a little nudge to make your work even more versatile. I can say that I learned a lot in these three weeks in Berlin with About Fashion! Can recommend it to anyone who’s interested in fashion, but just doesn’t know yet where to start.
Vielen Dank für alles, Silke und Marc!

An absolute masterpiece!

An absolute tour de force here. Silke was an incredible support for me. I took part in the portfolio course on site and it was the best decision. You learn a lot from the organisation to your own implementation. Especially for beginners, I find it more than helpful to apply to any topic here:)

Very pleasant and appreciative working atmosphere

I only knew that I wanted to apply for fashion design at a university and didn't have the slightest idea how to create a portfolio. I was really at a loss at the beginning. The course helped me a lot, thanks to the clearly structured approach and Silke's presentation, I managed to create my own portfolio. The structure and the targeted approach started before the course, with a small work assignment. Everything was very well organised and Silke always knows what to do. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who is interested in fashion or would like to study fashion design. Silke also managed to create a very pleasant and appreciative working atmosphere among us, which was very helpful and beneficial.
