The Diploma in Fashion Design and Technology at TUT combines creative design with technical garment construction, pattern making, and grading skills essential to the South African fashion industry. Students develop proficiency in both manual and digital methods, covering design conceptualisation, fabric technology, and fashion retail — from sketch to finished garment. The programme responds to the growing demand for locally skilled fashion professionals in manufacturing, retail, and entrepreneurship. Industry collaboration and cooperative education expose students to South African fashion weeks, retailers, and export markets.
